Good to know. I haven’t taken mine down yet but I’ll be using a light touch and loctite.I'd caution people considering this modification to be extremely careful.
The aluminum on TM22 is very soft.
Stripped threads from normal careful teardown and reassembly for cleanings are a real possibility.
Please consider you may have to purchase and install helicoils to repair these threads.
This is not a sky is falling warning, contact the manufacturer and refer to their web page for a similar warning.

Gunnutzguy, hunting gear guy and bats888 made video for these(for previous model)That’s pretty cool, I need to see this in action.
Just really really careful to line everything up and not cross thread.the handguard screw is the most prone to be stripped, only has like 3-4 teeth and the factory screw was intentionally long to dig into the barrel nut.Good to know.
