98Z5V Posted June 6, 2014 Report Posted June 6, 2014 I have to wonder if you guys would recommend that Cali_Ed use a version of Loctite for holding the clock on the muzzle brake. FUK NO!
shibiwan Posted June 6, 2014 Report Posted June 6, 2014 LOL..... so much for welding and/or pinning it on. Wonder what the rules in Nazi-CA are on that.
gnatshooter Posted June 6, 2014 Report Posted June 6, 2014 Sorry... I want him to have a bit of success in holding the brake in position. Having options is good.
StainTrain Posted June 6, 2014 Report Posted June 6, 2014 Some Muzzle device manufacturers sell those shims & there is always a crush washer . This is the correct answer.
98Z5V Posted June 6, 2014 Report Posted June 6, 2014 I used a crush washer on this one, NO LOC-TITE WHATSOEVER, and I timed it precisely. It's never, ever been a problem. I timed it to exactly 18:48:00, and it's perfect.
Cali_Ed Posted June 6, 2014 Author Report Posted June 6, 2014 I have a crush washer, I ordered the shims from midway. Also couldn't resist so I orders the noveske keymod rail covers haha
Rsquared Posted June 6, 2014 Report Posted June 6, 2014 (edited) Rocksett for the muzzle device ............ at 18:48. Edited June 6, 2014 by Rsquared
gnatshooter Posted June 6, 2014 Report Posted June 6, 2014 Rocksett for the muzzle device ............ at 18:48. Do you see that as alternative to crush washer/shims?
Robocop1051 Posted June 6, 2014 Report Posted June 6, 2014 I just started using Rocksett... I prefer to time mine to 17:48, but that's because I'm PST. I'm thinking of dropping the 24hr, and actually using 5:48 on my next rifle. I just worry I might mess it up and end up shooting PM at AM, or vice versa.
Rsquared Posted June 6, 2014 Report Posted June 6, 2014 Combination of shims and Rocksett. Shims to time the muzzle device. Rocksett to set it. Rocksett is an industrial adhesive. Sorta looks like krazy glue. Holds far superior to Loc-tite........any color.
98Z5V Posted June 6, 2014 Report Posted June 6, 2014 Rocksett, always - if it's a suppressor host. If it's not a suppressor host, there's no need for Rocksett in the least. Not even a drop. Just make sure you time it right.
Rsquared Posted June 6, 2014 Report Posted June 6, 2014 True. You read my mind. I was thinking of suppressors.
survivalshop Posted June 6, 2014 Report Posted June 6, 2014 I used loc tite on a on Custom ( cut to my barrels outside dia. ) PRI Comp . to keep it on . Took a 0.002" shim to index to the right position & would come loose very time I took her on a range trip . Used Blue loc tite & it has been on there for years & no movement . What ever works .

Cali_Ed Posted June 6, 2014 Author Report Posted June 6, 2014 Lol I like how my threads always turn into a bash fest kind of lol
unforgiven Posted June 6, 2014 Report Posted June 6, 2014 <lmao> You seem unsure. Sounds like a maybe..... >:D

Those of us who admire your boundless wisdom, such as my humble and curious self, would be glad to hear from you about why you have selected this particular timing, and whether that timing is viewed from the trigger or muzzle end of the rifle.

It's viewed from the ejection side of the rifle, as shown in the pictures. <thumbsup>
gnatshooter Posted June 6, 2014 Report Posted June 6, 2014 It's viewed from the ejection side of the rifle, as shown in the pictures. <thumbsup> Didn't see any link for the pix, but even so, what's the explanation for not doing things at noon/six? I've heard things about barrel torque induced by rifling, but nothing that required that much dangle of the angle.
