Hello:

I was wondering what brand of epoxy do you all use to help secure a dual dovetail base to a TC barrel?

I have some JB weld and red locktite.

Thanks

several brands. The stuff in the 2 syringes works real well, a tiny green pea size dab mixed together and put underneath the base (keep it away from screw holes) will keep that base on for good.

my scopes so there is no reason to use blue. And if I need to take a scope off the red is pretty easy to break loose.
