[QUOTE="jmden, post: 382531, member: 1742"] Boss, What happens to the paste was in the receiver threads? Is this a concern in that you're not using a threadlocker compound of some type here? So, the JB comes off with some heat? What kind of heat? What do you think about using a single layer of approx 400 grit paper, grit up, wrapped tightly around the receiver and gently moving the rail back and forth over the reciever (forwards and backwards) until about 1/2 the mating surface on the rail is a little scuffed up to give it a more custom fit before installation due to possible (likely) machining errors on the mating surfaces of receiver and rail? That's another thing M.L. mentioned that I've done a couple of times. Interesting procedure. Might try it some time if I can get my head around the above answers to my questions. Or, buy a BAT action with the rail machined into that action already! :rolleyes: [/QUOTE]
