RRS TA-3, lever release clamp tension

[wake.joe]

I ordered a TA-3 with lever release directly from RRS. My Seekins SP10 has an MRAS (Arca rail with Mlok attachment) and my RPR magnum has an Arca rail machined in along the bottom.

The Seekins adapter has almost no tension at all; I can lean forward against the rifle and slide it out of the clamp. The RPR mount tighter, but, slides back under recoil.

Is there any way to add or adjust tension on this? I would have bought a cheap Amazon clamp with a thumb screw if I knew this was going to work this poorly anyway.

The lever release clamps have to be mated with a rail made off of the spec. It has been known that many of the manufacturers have made different size ones for varying reasons. I have seen some people order a few varying sizes of washers in thickness, take the pin off the lever and add a washer until desired tension.

The washer trick works fine, it's just the downside of the levers. They often need to be mated/adjusted to individual rifles......

Do you guys have any idea what size the stud is for washer I.D.? I am at work and not with the product at the moment.
