Ever lost anything during your time at the range?

I had the muzzle brake on my first AK vanish. It was even pinned on. We looked downrange for it, but it was just gone.

I've lost the front sight off of a 1911. The older sights are pinned and are notorious for breaking off.

I had a guy walk off with my spotting scope. I had a bunch of gear at the range that day and it was getting late. I had to make a couple of trips to the truck. I checked the bench and everything was cleared off of it, but when I got home I realized my spotting scope was gone. I think the guy who did it actually waved at me as I was leaving. Fortunately, it was a cheap scope.

Not really valuable, I lost a turret cap for a red dot that I was sighting in.

Just my confidence after seeing my shooting performance that day.....I really need to practice more.

Fun y you bring this thread up. I had my glock out last weekend and the front sight was loose. I'll go pickup some blue loctite today.


I know I've lost a few magazines at the range. Definitely one for my wife's 243 and one for my glock 48. Probably fell on the ground under the table.and I didn't notice until the next range trip.

Thank you, I never even knew about this haha. I will do this the next time I screw on my ameriglos. Question is: how do you unscrew it?

Purple loctite would be best. Intended for small fasteners. Not as strong as blue or red.

Blue is easy to break, don’t put red or you’ll have problems.

243 is a blue loctite that requires heat to break and there’s red that does not need heat to break.

For a lot of firearm applications, I prefer purple (222) since it’s designed to not shear the screw on removal.

Loctite® Threadlocker Purple 222

Prevents corrosion, loosening from shock or vibration, and seals to prevent leakage.
