Frequently Asked Questions

Can Loctite disable an AK-47?

What happened when Loctite was applied to the Riley Defense AK-47?

A large amount of Loctite Threadlocker Blue 242 was applied to the bolt carrier group and inside the receiver. This caused the action to seize up initially, preventing normal operation until a live fire test was conducted.

Did the Riley Defense AK-47 survive the Loctite torture test?

Yes, the Riley Defense AK-47 successfully passed the torture test. Despite the initial seizure caused by excessive Loctite, the rifle fired and cycled, clearing the adhesive residue from the action.

What is Loctite 242 typically used for on firearms?

Loctite Threadlocker Blue 242 is commonly used to secure screws and prevent them from loosening due to vibration or shock. It's a medium-strength adhesive suitable for many firearm components, but should be used sparingly.
