Ok so i recently got a new flash hider the other day and unlike KWA the manufacture wasn't kind enough to provide a spot to use a set screw. My question is what grade of loctite would you guys recommend i use to keep the flash hider in place? I did a search here for it but couldn't find anything.

I have some clear Instant Krazy glue stuff i was thinking about using but i'm not sure how that'd turn out.

Well if i could tighten mine all the way it wouldn't move. But my flash hiders designed look won't match up when it's tightened all the way.

I ended up just using the Krazy glue and it seems to work fine. I'm playing in the morning so i'll have to see how it holds up.

Yeah i did. I dropped by a Target today after school and found out that glue bonded to metal like the Loctite glue Target so i decided to save a few bucks and use the glue i had at my house. I'm just worried the vibration from the gun firing may break the glues hold but we'll see.

Maybe you could reinforce it with a little strip of duct tape around the back of the flashider, just for tomorrow.
