I'm currently sitting here wondering how tight to do up my Patriot's stock screws. I have never taken a gun apart, but these guns loosen up quite often from the huge recoil. Also, using LocTite, how much should I put on each screw? Is there a recommended torque setting ? cheers 
P.S. there may be an answer here, but 'search' is not working today for me  |

Torquing the screw is probably unnecessary. Usually the are snugged in "firmly" Something less than "all ya got" and more than "finger tight"
As for blue loctite. Just enough to fill the valley in the first three threads. |

The smallest drop you can muster is probably going to be more than enough. Good stuff, though. |
