Just received and installed my Alpha 10" rail and RTC.  Very nice products and I'm very happy with them after install. I do wonder why you all state not to use any threadlock, even a light one like purple Loctite, on the six screws of the Alpha rail where as every other threaded item on the two products have some sort of thread lock on them?

Because they are very small fasteners and the steel screws tend to bite into the hard coat and not loosen. We don’t want the heads to strip if you need to ever remove them.
