[QUOTE="grit, post: 642614, member: 4112"] That's funny! A gunsmiths perspective is a bit different. Tight fitting stainless steel will stick to itself, galling and tearing. Dry threads can ruin themselves. The way these things are fit and torqued on, I worry about being able to get them off, not keeping them on. They don't come loose on accident. If one did loosen , the seam would be instantly visible, and it'd have to nearly fall off before it caused a problem. I remember high school metal shop. I saw the principal once or twice for building "weapons". They didn't appreciate me switching a centerfold for the safety poster either. :D [/QUOTE]
