i always use the flathead bolt,and i've never had any problem at all with keeping it tight.you are supposed to,when you slide it on,put it on the rail,then push it forward very slightly,as far as it will allow,then tighten it.it should hold very tightly for you.good luck with that,though.oh,and try to use a screwdriver

Actually, there's a warning label in EOTech saying not to use Loctite. :-(

Everyone uses it. I am a EOTech Distr. and am advising you that if you want to keep your EOTech ON YOUR WEAPON then you need to loctite the screw! C4 |

Yeah! Dont use red loctite! That is why they put the warning there. If you use red, you will be cutting the EoTech off.
Blue is cool though. I run blue on mine with 100% satisfaction and I can remove it too. Buy a Larue EoTech mount from Grant and blue loctite the EoTech to the mount and remove the mount and scope both as (rarely) needed. |

Thanks to Tim at Tactical Supplies I will soon be mounting an EOT to a flattop. I know this is a noob question, but do you put the Blue Loctite on the thread of the mounting screw or the rails of the receiver, and how much

Tighten and loosen the thumb screw a few times.. it will set in and stay tighten. If the sight is new, just have to repeat the process a few times.. It works for me always...

Interesting...I had some replacement screws sent to me a while back, and they came from the factory with loc-tite on them.
