[ARCHIVED THREAD] - Suppressor muzzle Loctite ?

Posted: 7/28/2016 5:19:33 PM EDT

What do you guys recommend ? I currently have the blue on a couple that is holding up ok. I have not shot 200 rounds real quick to see if it melts away. I read where people say Red Loctite or Rockset. I am just curious ? I didn't use Red fearing it would be very hard to remove someday if I wanted to. But I sure do not want my flash hider walking off either.

I'm getting ready to use a 14x1 metric flash hider for my Ak. What should I use ? Rockset ?

People use both. Personally I use rocksett and haven't had an issue. It just takes a little to get it to work.

Thanks.

Ok, next, I put a YHM 14x1 QD flash hider on my C39v2. I use a Saker 762. I bought an alignment rod from geissle. This rifle is suppose to be concentric threads. But I do not have a perfect center like on my .308, the rod had a tiny bit of play in the Ak vs the .308. Do you think I'm good to go ? Kind of the main reason I bought the C39, suppressor ready

I also used this on my Wasr and it is way off. I would definitely have a baffle strike. Didn't plan on using it that anyway.

For AK's you have to stand it up and try to get the bore as vertical as you can. The rod should balance on the muzzle and you can get an idea. As long as it isn't touching the silencer then you are good.

I see. I think it was off a little cause the rod wasn't perfectly snug. So your saying now I need to buy the CNC warrior rod that is cut so it can balance on the muzzle ? Cause the geissle is one size and 17".

I haven't used the Geissle so I can't speak to it. I use the CNC Warrior and haven't had an issue.

I got my CNC warrior rod in today. I would say in the upright position it looks pretty good. Guess I feel pretty safe firing that first round. Thanks for advice and help.

Wish I wouldn't have bought the $75 geissle rod. But it does work great in a .308 rifle.

Thanks for the update. As long as you aren't touching then you should be good.
