Buy recommendations Watch my local gunsmith make 200$

This is the second time this happens (after 500 rounds and +115 rounds after that).

Because I re-screwed the picatinny rail screws and added blue loctite myself (which wasn't done from the factory), I've voided the warrant for this component according to Stoeger Canada. So basically I can't screw in my own loose screws without voiding warranty on the screws and threads.

I was gonna recommend all Beretta 1301 owners to loctite their thread when they buy their brand new shotgun, but I can't even properly recommend that.

This is a good reminder for all of us to check for screws that have come loose. After I torque my stuff, I'll put witness marks on everything. It's cheap insurance.

YMMV but I will inspect all my witness marks during cleaning or battery changes, whichever comes first.

That's honestly what I'm hoping this post accomplishes. Good reminders and advice for any noobies that come across this post. Im not looking to light a fire under anyone's/manufacturer's ass
