Yep. Acetone-based nail polish remover may work.

I see you missed my thread on the origin of cyanoacrylate glues 
Acetone is mentioned there.
For a fella with glued fingers, you're typing remarkably well. And you can't have dictated the post to Siri or Alexa because there are no errors in it
All kidding aside, I hope you get successfully unstuck.

Excuse me, but how did you manage to do that? Loctite is not an instant drying thing, like Super Glue is.
Just curious...

Loctite is a brand name. Pretty sure he is talking about super glue and not thread locker.

Read the label !!That is Super Glue !!!! Loctite is the brand. I hope you did not super glue some screws into your gun. Acetone should work great, If you do not have any in the shop/house, try vinegar. agree with doug, if that does not work, head to the ER.

If you are not quickly successful with acetone, head for the ER. They have far better resources.
OP
No....not in any weapon....had to re-attach the hinges and screws in my fan fold doors in front of the washer and dryer......
If it makes you feel any better…
Know a guy who super glued his eyes shut. Both of them. Bottle looked like eye drops.
The kicker was, he was a paramedic. Plus his wife was very pregnant at the time. She never let him live that down.
No, I am not making this up….

I once glued my fingertips together with that GI-issue super glue that smoked when opened. I just worked my fingers back and forth until the natural skin oils released the glue. Took a while, but all was intact afterwards.
I spilled a bunch in my lap while wearing shorts years ago.Thighs were bald for months lol
OP
Hummmmm........sure glad I did not do that......but thanks to all the nail polish remover did the trick along with a couple of Emory boards.....now my first two fingers of my left hand will have all new skin.......
Next time try toothpicks and wood glue. Been doing that for years. Cut or break toothpicks to depth of hole add wood glue !!
OP
what keeps the hinge from falling off the toothpicks
The screws you put back into holes where toothpicks are. Iam sorry for laughing also!!!

OK....Me bad....you are using toothpicks as wood filler.....now I'm laughing at my stupidity
Heat should loosen it up. Light a candle and hold your fingers in the flame
