Hi all
Purchase a 1911 ed brown went threw 250 rds. while cleaning the gun notice the roll pin in the front sight had come up a small bit. use a small hammer with tape on top of sight and move it back in without scaring the sight. my question what color loc-tite to put on top of the small pin. cost too much to send back to brown. hopeing it will not pop back up when i shoot again.
thanks for some info.
