I just installed the Tandemkross Halo on my new MKIV Target. Has anyone put Locktite on the screw or no? Should Loctite be applied?

I'm guessing you're talking about the front sight screw. Seems to be a standard feature across the mkiii and IV. Yes, loctite the shit out of it. Or if your talking on the sight, yes. I loctite all my sighting equipment.

Oh. That's a unique little product. Use blue loctite for it if it is coming loose. Blue is the easiest to remove. Has it been coming loose while firing? I've always found the bolt easy to manipulate, in stock form, on my mkiii Hunter. Does this gadget do more than just ease the use of the bolt? Like change the felt impulse or slow the action on a troublesome pistol?

I'm hoping my fingers don't get pinched again when I try this out which is why I got it.

I have a few. They are pretty snug on the bolt before even tightening the clamping screw. I did not use any sort of thread locker and they have never came loose.
