What type of Loc-tite should be used on different areas of assembly?

Back-up sights?

Buffer Tube?

Anti-walk pins for trigger assembly?

Stock/sling mounts?

Anywhere else?

I know "staking" is another method for some areas, but I'm pretty sure those are already covered, except the Buffer Tube, which doesn't have a nut based upon my stock choice.
You can use Blue in all those locations, but really most BUIS don't work loose if they are steel and mil spec rail design.

Please describe the buffer tube set up.  That is the one location that needs staking, along with gas key on the bolt carrier.

The anti walk pins should use blue loctite.

Perhaps the most important area for loctite is the scope rings where they hold the scope.  I put blue loctite and then apply a dab of red finger nail polish to be able to easily identify if the screws have worked loose.

 Spent an hour or so climing a tree to install a yagi antenna for a cell phone booster/repeater trying to get a better signal for my cell phone at the hide/weekend place.  After climing the tree I had to add an extension cable and the extra length reduced the signal worse than leaving it lower to the ground.  Back up the tree to remove it and now mounted on the eave of the house on the gable end.  Have some more work to do to route cables and run them into the house.  All this in near 100 degree heat...and high humidy....ugh

Wyo, thanks. I would not worry about how much ammo I had. My go to rounds will still be 5.56, .45 , 12ga, and .308. I would keep only maybe 1000 rounds of .300 rounds on hand just for this single purpose. Good news is that by buying a 5.56 barrel I can swap back and forth between calibers with only a small investment.

Firearms / Rethinking vehicular and packable weapons systems
« on: June 05, 2017, 08:24:00 AM »
The events in Europe of the last three months have caused me to rethink my chosen weapon system for EDC.  Typically I CC a Glock 23 (.40, midsize).  With the recent events of vehicular terrorism in the UK and knowing that our past politicians embraced some of the same sick people to come to the US, it is unfortunatley only a matter of time before we see the same in the US.  The seeds were sown long ago in the 60s, but starting with Clinton in the mid 1990s the refugees began to pour in from Muslim countries.  It is now only a matter of time (I estimate 10 years or less) before these types of attacks become commonplace in the US.

http://www.thesocialcontract.com/pdf/twentythree-four/tsc_23_4_gibson_3.pdf
http://cis.org/USMuslimImmigrants

With this in mind, I believe that there is a need for more powerful weapons system on ones person or vehicle.  In Texas you cannot conceal a long gun the way you can a pistol.  In the past, I thought the concept of and AR platform pistol was a novelty and a waste of resources.  Given the recent events and an article I read about AR pistols, I am now embarking on a journey to build an AR PDW pistol.

http://www.alloutdoor.com/2017/05/08/justification-packable-ar15-pistols-vehicles/

I will use this thread as a place to document the build and the decision process associated with parts and as always DOT Bait for the inevitable conversations that ensue.

So here is where my calculus is at the moment.

The foundation will be an AR platform with a very short barrel and a folding buffer tube adapter.  With this set up, I should be able to easily conceal this weapon in the console of my truck and a briefcase or backpack. 

http://www.primaryarms.com/law-tactical-ar-folding-stock-adapter-gen-3-m-ltgen3m

The question at the moment is caliber.  Those that have followed some of my musings in the past know that I have chosen to standardize calibers, platforms and parts to keep it simple.   After some reading, I am wondering if the 300 Blackout might be a better choice for such a weapons system.  My criteria for caliber selection would be:

commercially available and reliable feeding with minimal parts modification
ballistically superior from a barrel length of 7.5 inches or less
ability to penetrate winsheilds and unreinforced automotive panels
minute of scumbag accuracy to 75-100 yards
reliability of feeding
lethality in humans

From that I can tell, the 300BK is superior from short barrels and requires the least amount of weapons modifications to run in an AR platform and keeps wear and tear on parts to a minimum.

With that said I do not have any experience with the 300BK so I am open to other options.

I have many lowers in the safe, so I will start with a LPK and the folding buffer tube adapter.

Would appreciate your perspective and thoughts.

We had better wake up!  While liberals want to deride Trump for trying to extreme vett Muslims our political correctness is very likely going to get people killed in the US like the PC garbage of love and inclusion has turned Europe into a killing ground for Islamic terrorists. 

We must demand that our government:

1 put the safety of our citizens above refugees.
2. Infiltrate mosques and social media sites frequented by Islamist and  revoke their status or citizenship.
3. Break up neighborhoods that are "no go" areas due to high concentrations of Muslims.
4. Pass a law outlawing the practice of sharia law in the US

I have a camera system in my hide/weekend place. Satellite internet is very expensive to constantly stream up images. My system emails me when it detects motion along with a still shot of the image. Then I can use the app to check in via live stream. Total investment $1500 for 9 cameras and NVR. Cameras have 75ft IR
Only advice is NOT to mount cameras on trees. When they sway in the wind the cameras sense motion
