SR-22 Top Screws Warranty

[sqwat]

So I am wondering who does warranty work in canada for the SR-22 Rifle.

My top screws are very loose. It got to the point where at the range I was shooting away and one actually came out of the gun.

So being that the gun is three months old, what to do?

i used a bit
im afraid to use a lot as i do not want it to drip into the action

i used blue with no problems id say 2 drops should be good if you want use red when i disassemble the sr22 i never needed to take those top screws out anyway

Does that rail have to be taken off for cleaning?

If not who cares if it gets into the action. Just wipe the action clean underneath.

Even if it does can't you use a Q-Tip or something to wipe it clean with the bolt open?

If by chance any loctite dripped into the action it wouldn't do anything. It only works in enclosed spaces like threads. In open air it just dries to a film and wipes off, so no risk.

i do not take the rail off either. the problem is they come loose and fall out from just shooting the gun.
also one is stripped now from tightening it down

Make sure you clean all threads with alcohol. Put a couple drops of blue loctite on and tighten. I did this with mine a year ago and have not come loose. But before you do any of this make sure you can disassembly with the rail in place. Mine was ok but some have had issues.
