#222 (Purple) works better than Blue If you plan to take it off/put it on much. It retains more of its hold through multiple uses.

Screws on my ARMS 22M68 loosened after a few hundred rounds. Now I use blue Loctite on my all my ARMS products. Works like a charm and it's easy to remove when necessary.

Dumb question: Do you have to mount the #40 BEFORE installing the rail system (I have a #50), or after?

Quoted: Yes. Red 271. You might as well have welded your #40 to the receiver. |

Quoted: You might as well have welded your #40 to the receiver. Comes off with a screwdriver - no problems. It's the only grade that doesn't vibrate off. YMMV. edited to add: There are different grades of red. 271 was the only "high strength" threadlocker, according to LocTite's product info, that's not permanent and doesn't require heat for removal. |

Thanks for the heads up on the 271, I'll pick up a tube at the parts store tomorrow. |
