Is there any reason that I shouldn't Loctite my ring and mount screws?
>>

No. Unless for whatever reason you can't undo them afterwards.
>>
Just don't use the red loctite.
>>
>>30384266

theres no reason you shouldnt do this. loctite isnt superglue, with enough torque you can beak through it
>>
>>30384314
red loctite needs heat, enough heat to mess with the temper of your metals.
>>
>>30384266
It's a waste of money. Get a good torque wrench and follow the manufacturer's directions.

This. Use Blue Loctite. I use it on the yoke screw on my revolver.
>>
Ive used wifes clear nail polish. It works if you are in a jam
>>
>>30385282
I use jam, it works if you're in a wife
>>
Every single screw on your gun, loctite it. Get the blue 242 loctite, don't use the red one.

You have more reasons as to why you should than shouldn't
>>
I mostly lurk this board, but just checking in to say: I assemble a ton of guns everyday at my job, and we use red loctite for all the screws. It isn't this scary permanent thing that it's advertised/known as. Spray some oil on it and you can get it out no problem.
>>
I like to crossthread my screws. Crossthreading holds better than loctite
