This. Locking compound is unnecessary if the bolt is tightened correctly, nor is it mentioned in any military manual I've ever seen.

Snug with a star washer. Never had an issue. I think it’s called 1/4 ugga dugga

I've seen in factory grips assembled without torque measurements

For over 20 years now I have changed all my grip screws to hex and just snug tight. Hex is way easier to get started then slotted

The lock washer is designed to do its job.
Blue loctite cant hurt.

There's tight and there is farmer tight. In this case, tight is sufficient.

Turn it tight until you hear the aluminum crack, and then dial it back a little.

Hand tighten and then 1/8th to 1/4th turn works for me.

LOOOOOOOOOOOOOL!

So in other words, turn it up to max then rip the knob off!!!!!!!!

Torque spec of grip screw on AR15?
