1906/1890 winchester

Post by coyote nose »

Anybody shoot these? I have 2 and am forever having to tighten the takedown screw. Maybe 3 or 4 times for every box of ammo. Thinking of putting locktite on the threads, but I do use the takedown feature. How about tar or something gummy on the threads? Any ideas?

LocTite makes a product I think is called Vibramax or Vibratite. You put it on the threads and it's stays gummy.

I have a 62A and an 06. Never put nothing on the threads as we never had the problem. Can't say that we take them down either. Don't see why the Loctite product wouldn't work.
Sincerely,
