Tenebraex ARD for Leupold Spotter

[mildot326]

So I picked up my ARD, however I suspected that it would be a fairly straight forward to install? screw it on right.

However it was difficult to start, and it didn't/won't screw all the way down to the shoulder? it was quite hard to turn as well?
Right part # there seems to be some material coming of the threads as well maybe the paint?

I thought that would have just screwed on easily? without any resistance.

I've been very gentle with it since they are fine threads and I don't want to screw up my ARD or spotter?
I was able to get it to screw on about one turn maybe?
Any advice/comments troops?
Thanks

OK I figured this out, I talked to a smith buddy of mine and he reminded me that alum on alum is a no no. Why didn't I remember that?.So a little SLIP 2000 grease and some patience and it screws on like a charm.Anyway I'm surprised I could miss something so simple, but isn't that usually the way. Just an FYI for ya.
