Loctite or something

Post by coconut »

Is there a loctite product strong enough to hold a barrel swivel on the underside of a side by side shotgun or do I have to get it drilled and tapped?

Definitely drill and tap. I wouldn’t chance jbweld or something like that to hold a sling swivel

Drill and tap for sure. I would hate for the swivel to break loose and your DB to go crashing to the ground.

If it has a red dot you can make a paracord sling that does not need a swivel. You save the weight of the studs and swivels that way.

Don’t have red dot yet. Wife sent me to big city to get new stove and I spotted an acedemy sports. She wasn’t real clear on stove budget so I got nice yildiz side by 410 and real cheap stove at Lowe’s. She said she would split cost of stove. I hope she believes the thing was 900 bucks. I mean I needed the 410 to put meat on the stove.

Check out “anysling.us”. Paracord adjustable, swiveless. Easy to use.

Here's the removable sling I use on a woodcock/quail SxS doubles. The barrels are held by leather covered spring steel "C" with the "C" opening along the rib giving an unobstructed sight plane.

I like the way this one looks. Do you think it will work with 410 barrels? Things are tiny

Maybe not. Only way to find out is to call and ask. I use mine on a 20 ga. and was able to compress to fit, but .410 is considerably smaller. It may be compressible to fit, but the ends of the clamp might be too close together on a .410. Would you be shooting off a bead, rifle sight, peep or red dot? Gil

Red Green said he would use camo duct tape, here on the Rockyboy Indian reservation the natives call it "Rockyboy Weld"
