Cottonmouth Mark 51 Posted January 1 Share Posted January 1 Stupid question. I have Uberti SAA clones. The cross pin(?) that holds the cylinder pin/axle keeps coming loose. Is this OK to Loctite Blue? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Ol Number4 127 Posted January 1 Share Posted January 1 Try some clear fingernail polish on all your screws. Easy to dab on, invisible, and easy to release with Acetone. Ol' #4 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Cottonmouth Mark 51 Posted January 1 Author Share Posted January 1 Locktite blue it is tomorrow. I think the random binding I’m feeling after 50-100 rounds is that loosening up and letting the cylinder pin walk a little Quote Link to post Share on other sites

If the base pin is not fully in where it belongs the cylinder will bind. Don't ask me how I know. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
The Original Lumpy Gritz 7,373 Posted January 1 Share Posted January 1 Yes, to a very small 'dab' of blue. Shake the container vigorously for 5-10 seconds. OLG Quote Link to post Share on other sites
