Any threadlocker on Gen 2 type muzzle brakes?

[Mike_in_FL]

Are you using anything like Loc-tite or Rocketsett on these hand tight brakes? I've had one brand come loose at the range and installing a different brand today with what seems to be similar results. These things appear to either need tools to tighten or some kind of adhesive. How are you installing yours? TIA

I have two plumbing strap wrenches for not marring automotive chrome stuff. What do you recommend for something this small? I did go and and shoot the one I mounted today and at least it didn't come loose.

The little cheap rubber ones at most any hardware store.

I'll have to check Ace on the next trip. I've never seen one but never looked either.

Those little strap wrenches work wonders on suppressors too... ask me how I know...
