Title: Loctite?
Post by: Bkesting on August 06, 2014, 10:24:17 AM

I apologize if this has been asked and answered many times already.  I couldn't find a thread on the specific question.

For my Benjamin Trail NP All Weather:

I need to re-tighten the three main stock screws after each 50 shots or so. Should I apply Loctite to hold them I place?  If so, does anyone recommend a procedure to do it properly?

Yes Blue Locktite  best way to get good results is remove the screws  and clean the threads on the screws and stock/brackets with a good solvent then re assemble and let cure over night. Also welcome to the GTA

I'll concur with the above, but you need to determine whether the screws are getting loose in the first place.  Sometimes the stock material is compressing and the result is the same - loose screws.  Loctite won't fix that.
