    Anyone use locktite on your Eotech 3x magnifier?

    After about 100rds it starts to get loose and move high right. I began pulling out the adjusting screws on the mount, but figured I would ask first, so I dont make things worse. Plan on using Blue locktite.

    What is coming loose?
    I have Loctite on the screws that attach the magnifier to the flip mount. It seems to be holding up okay.

      Yes, that is what I meant the mount screws that adjust the windage. I started unscrewing them and they started getting tighter so I wasn't sure. Thanks for the reply!

        what mag do you have, the g23? the screws on the top and side should not be messed with much aside from minor adjustments (elevation and windage to center the red dot.) but the 2 screws that mount the mag to the flip mount should get a drop of loctite.

          That is the problem, i adjust them so the dot is in the middle and after 60-80 rounds the dot moves to the high right. Any other ideas on having it stay tight?

            Send it in to Eotech, it should not do that.
