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.

Unpopular opinion, you should be checking every gun you buy and Doing things like locktighting and de greasing every part, ,
a quick pre fire check will safe you massive headaches down the road, especially with rails or for ends on basically any firearm give it a quick clean and retorque with some of the blue or your prefered thread locker and have the piece of mind,
The odds of a few guns being iffy out of a big box manufacturer cranking out thousands of these things a month is pretty high, even for the premium brands, you can tell the difference between a gun made Monday and a gun made Friday afternoon ;)
