[ARCHIVED THREAD] - Adapter Sticking

Posted: 8/11/2015 12:25:47 AM EDT

So I have a new Mystic X and love it but noticed sometimes it's hard to remove the adapter after shooting awhile. Is there some way to make this easier? I clean the threads with a brush after shooting but wonder if that's good enough.

A thin coating of Fire Clean will solve that.

Thanks. I'll try that. I already precoat my baffles and cores with Fire Clean. Makes cleaning a lot easier. Never though of using it lightly on the threads.

Though I'll still try the FireClean and thoughts on using a small amount of LOCTITE - C5-A ANTI-SEIZE LUBRICANT ?

I had problems with one of my specwar 762s sticking on every rifle I put it it on and bought some silver antisieze and put on the can threads. No problems since. The other 762 and none of the 556 specwars have shown the same issue, but there's always one problem child in the class.

FTW. It doesn't take much.
