Loctite necessary for C-more Picatinny mount?

[BlackBuzzard]

Plan on using a C-More Railway Reflex Sight 8 MOA Red Dot with Integral Picatinny Mount on my PCC.

 

Is anyone using loctite (blue) on the screws that clamp the mount to the rail on the gun?

 

My first reaction is to avoid it unless things begin to move on me.

 

I do plan to blue loctite the C-more to the mount.

I use blue. No big deal to get loose if you need to so why wait until you need it?

Hello: I don't use anything on it. They will not come loose. I do use blue LocTite for the mounting screws to the railway base. Thanks, Eric

I have learned that every screw will eventually work loose at the worst possible time.  I put blue loctite on almost everything.

Murphy's Law, and it will happen at the worst time. Blue  Loctite is cheap and will come apart when you need it to. I have seen every screw on a sight, rail, or scope come loose and it is sneaky. Little by little your accuracy declines.

I have several of them on various rifles and have yet to see a properly torqued one come loose. Be careful not to over tighten because It will deform.

No loctite on either of mine. 20k rounds later they're both still tight.
