    I just received mine in the mail. Holy crap this thing is low profile and seems really well made like every other bcm product!

    I've never messed with the anti rotational QD. I do like that much better than some of the old QDs I've seen in the past.

    The mount is awesome... no doubt... But I'm going to have to run it a while to see if I can warm up to/trust QD completely.

    Got mine today... Like everybody else, I like it. Easy to install, just make sure you loosen the screws enough to get it on the rail. I hit mine with some Loctite Green 290 after install, keeps it from getting smeared on the rail manipulating it into position.

    Mark - I really learned to appreciate the anti-rotation feature the last time I was in the field with my Army-issue M4. The Tango Down QD sling mount on my RE was not anti-rotational and kept getting twisted around from taking it off to climb in my MRAP turret. The Gear Sector sling mount on my rail was anti-rotational and much easier to deal with. I will definitely stick with anti-rotational QDs in the future.

    Dave, were you using the side mounting point or the qd hole inline with the RE? I use the PR-4 mount on a few and the RE keeps the swivel from rotating if you use the rearmost hole.

    The one thing it does that I like is that it locks in at a 45 degree angle. That makes for a better angle when the rifle is hanging across my chest.

    One of the benefits of the angled interface of the KeyMod system is that screws should resist loosening from vibration. For those that like or require the added insurance of a thread locker we suggest blue loctite. It will wick into the threads also, and in our experience the green can be overkill as it's typically used for maximum shear strength. It's easily removed once heated, but can otherwise lead to damaged threads if one forgets about it.

    In the past, I've used the green (290) for taking-up gaps between press fit components that were too loose to use as-machined. It always worked, but could cause trouble if the parts ever needed to come apart again.

    290 is a medium strength, I've found it easy to take down with regular hand tools, simular to 242 Blue.

    I think you may be thinking of the 600 series of "greens".

    That could be, I'm not at my workbench currently. The medium strength 'blue' is still our recommendation for most. Thread lockers are much like gun oils, everyone has a preference but all that matters is it does what's expected.

    FYI - Nothing new... Impact Weapons Components QD RL KeyMod & Noveske's have had this feature since launch.
