Just got one of these today and the carrier key screws aren't staked?

Does Young use any type of threadlocker?  Has anybody experienced a loose key yet? If so, what was the round count?

Brilliant!! Why didn't I think of that! (just bustin' balls)

I actually wanted to know if this was a normal occurance and if anybody knows for sure if they use threadlocker....or their reason behind not staking them.....

I used red loctite on the carrier key screws on my Young NM carrier. No problems after a few thousand rounds. But, I do make it a habit to check it at every cleaning.

ETA: I would assume that if they are not staked, they would most definitely have used a threadlocker.
