blue Loctite not working to hold torque

[Professor Doolittle]

I use electrical contact cleaner in a spray can. A little less aggressive than brake cleaner or carb cleaner and generally more compatible with finishes and plastics. If it is safe for a circuit board it is generally ok for firearms. I use it for ARs, pistols, revolvers, everything. Extension tube makes it great for blast cleaning 22 actions of all that gunk, even if the frame and/or parts are plastic and nylon. Works great for threadlocker prep.

I used brake cleaner high pressure spray to clean the threads and then went with red loctite. Since I will never have a reason to remove the action rail unless the torque breaks this made sense to me. Also torqued it to a higher value, 28 in/lbs. We'll see how that holds.
