I just recently got a Bushie barrel of the EE for a good deal. It did not have a front sight post. So I added a YHM front sight base that clamps on with 4 bolts. Have not had a chance to shoot it yet. I used locktight on the bolts. Any one out have any experance with this type of sight? Any problems with gas leaking or the bolts comeing lose? Thanks

I have the YHM flip front sight and have not had a problem with it at all.
I didn't use loctite on the bolts due to the possibility of the loctite wicking (somehow...Murphy follows me) into the gas system.

I was afraid that the gas holes weren't going to line up, were going to be out-of-spec, etc. but these fears were unfounded.  

As long as you were judicious in your use of loctite i think you'll be fine.
