My dawson front fiber sight has a loose fit should it be red loctited?

Did you do it yourself? I've done two (one I screwed up and one just fine)... I don't know how your's is loose. Mine were tight as heck... that's why I screwed up the first one.



If my front sight was loose I'd replace it. I suppose locktite could work in the interim.

you bet; grab a center punch and hammer and lightly raise some dings on the underside of the sight. this will make for a tighter fit. Red locktite is also a good lubricant for installing new sights. -until it dries!

Locktite was not used on my DP FO front sight. It is not going to move without a sight pusher or a hammer and punch.

Please define loose! If it moves with your finger- replace it.

when I tap it with a drift punch and a 16 oz hammer it moves and I mean a light tap can't move it with fingers

Just use some red loctite on it then!
