Default Don't laugh too hard

I shot trap with my NH 10ga last night. However, it took some doing to get the safety off. I noticed the screw that comes up from under the trigger guard, the one whose head is just behind the safety, had loosened again from recoil. It needed about a half turn to be tight. Since this happened before I put a drop of blue loctite on it this time. After putting the gun back together I got busy doing something else and left it sitting upside down on a table. While it sat there some excess loctite ran under the safety. Let me tell ya the stuff works great, the safety wouldn't budge. It took me and Scott together, one holding the gun and a piece of wood against the safety and fairly good hit against the wood to break it free.
All's well that ends well

"When all else fails, get a bigger hammer"

Came across this expression that dove tails with a lot of life experience:

If it ain't broke, fix it until it is

Brilliantly, I put a couple of drops on my light Mod choke tube so it wouldn't loosen when shooting. Needless to say it took King Kong and his cousin to finally get it oaut.
