    Mlok: blue loctite mandatory

    I’ve been to the range twice recently and have a stream light scout white mountain with my Arisaka mloc mount. It always shoot off after a couple of mags. Must one always use blue Loctite with an Mloc mount? Thanks.

    All mine are loctited. To be fair, all mine came with thread sealant on the screws.

    Everything gets loctited on a serious use AR.

    Everything.
    Why do the loudest do the least?

    Is the light coming off the mount, or the mount coming off the rail? How old is the mount? Arisaka updated their mounts a few years ago with larger taper screw heads. But yes, Loctite or Vibratite VC3.

    This. Without fail, OR just Loctite the stuff you don't want coming off.
    A true "Gun Guy" (or gal) should have familiarity and a modicum of proficiency with most all firearms platforms.
