I have the SMC, and I love it! But I have a question.

When I first got it I had it on my AR, and recently I got the MOE forend for my 870 and decided I wanted the light on there more than the AR, so I just took it off and put it on the MOE forend of the 870, noting seemed wrong, so I ASSumed that everything would work. Yesterday, I finally got a chance to take it shooting and when I got home I noticed that the light clamp itself was loose, so Itightened it back up.

My question is this: will this happen everytime I take it out shooting, or should I just drop a tiny bit of loktite on it and call it good? Is there a difference between the SMC for the AR, and the 870 MOE? Untill just now I didnt notice you had the option on the dropdown box(in all honesty, its been while since I've been on your site.)

It's the same mount and hardware for all listed in the drop down...

YES... Thread locker on the backing plates is a great idea to solve your issue.
