Anyone else have this problem? I've used some loc tite blue on the four screws but it still loosens up after 300-400 rounds. Any suggestions?
 
I used blue on mine as they came loose after a couple hundred and it has several thousand through it now and still tight. I really cranked them down and left the gun sit for a week before using it though.
 
Blue loctite should do the trick. Maybe the bolts were not very clean when you applied the loctite or maybe the loctite was bad.

I have used blue loctite on all my firearms and havent had any problems.
 
Install a bolt buffer. It's the hard impact of the bolt against the back of the receiver that causes the loosening. My SR-22 would loosen the top screws no matter what I did, until I finally fixed the root of the problem.
 
If the blue loc tite isn't holding, try the red, but it will take a bit of hear to loosen if you ever want to remove the bolts.
