This guide details the installation of a Midwest Industries skeletonized aluminum stock onto a Remington 870 shotgun, with notes applicable to Mossberg 500/590 platforms. It covers removing the original stock, installing the adapter and grip components, securing the main stock, and attaching optional accessories like a shell holder. The process emphasizes proper torque values and the use of thread-locking compounds for a secure fit. The adjustable cheek riser can be configured for different optic setups or shooter preferences.

This video from School of the American Rifle discusses the proper application of high-temperature thread lockers like Rocksett and Hot Lock for firearm components. It emphasizes using these products for areas exposed to significant heat, such as muzzle devices and suppressor mounts, to ensure they remain secure. The instructor advises against using standard blue thread locker in these applications due to its lower temperature rating.

This video details a 3000-round review of the Staccato CS pistol where the point of impact shifted significantly. The issue was traced back to a broken optic plate, attributed by the reviewer to insufficient setting time for Vibra-Tite, rather than a defect in the plate or optic itself. The video emphasizes the importance of proper application of Vibra-Tite for maintaining optic stability.

This guide details the installation of the MDT One-Piece Competition Scope Mount, emphasizing proper torque specifications and a unique tightening sequence to ensure optic security and alignment. It highlights the importance of Vibra-Tite for thread locking and the necessity of a tall target test to verify scope tracking and plumbness. The video also touches on optimal scope height for chassis rifles and the benefits of robust, heavy-duty mounts for high-recoil applications.

This video provides an in-depth comparison of various thread locking compounds for firearms applications, specifically muzzle devices. Through controlled testing, it evaluates torque resistance and behavior under heat. The presenter, drawing on practical experience, highlights the importance of proper thread locker selection for ensuring the security and alignment of muzzle devices, especially when using suppressors.

This guide details the proper installation of muzzle devices using shims, a critical step for ensuring suppressor compatibility and firearm safety. The VSO Gun Channel Host, with high authority, explains the dangers of using crush washers with suppressors due to potential misalignment and baffle strikes. The recommended method involves precise shimming and high-temperature thread lockers like Rocksett.
