Finally got it all together and now "The Big Evil" is ready for some range time

Here's the tube all realigned and lookin' purdy. I didn't need to replace it because it wasn't marred but I made sure before I put it back in.

Got the new gas key all fitted up and snug. Now, I know it's not staked and I know it needs to be. What I did was take some red loctite and put a fine layer on both allen screws. It's high temperature stuff so I think it'll be ok just as long as I don't do a mag dump and will hold up until the beginning of December when I go home and can stake it.

Here's the red loctite lightly layered on the end of the screw. Everything is fitted up and ready to go. It cycles as smoothly as it did when I first bought it and I'm pleased with the repair. Jeremy and Matt, I know y'all wanted to see how the plastixrevolution brass catcher handled and I'll let y'all know as soon as I go to the range.

I'm looking forward to seeing how everything goes as well as will the locktite hold. I've seen guys use red locktite on their harleys and have it rattled loose.

 

[sonuvaTXgun]

Me too. It's my baby and I was worried about applying it but hopefully it'll hold up. Like I said, I won't be doing any mag dumps so the heat won't bother it but I'm only going to the range once or twice until the end of semester. After that, I'll be able to stake it and home free.

I don't believe you can get your gun hot enough to bother the red threadlock. Maybe blue, but not red. The vibrations are what concern me. Maybe pull it out and check halfway through the first mag and then once a mag for the first 10 mags-however long that may take. I know I usually only shoot one or two mags a day. Lol

Good idea. I don't plan on shooting more than a mag or two anyway. I need to hold on to as much ammo as I can. Lol
