ULE Feedneck... locked in?

[joeyjoe367]

I when I first got my ULE mainbody, I slapped a revvie on it and noticed that the feedneck would come unscrewed really easily.

When it came off, I could smell something kinda weird in there.. was it lock-tighted down and just didn't set when I got it?

I played on saturday with it and it held just fine tho.. kinda odd.

i wasn't sure if they came off or not, i didn't want to twist mine too hard incase they weren't supposed to.

They're Angel threaded feed necks - Threaded - meaning they unthread. ;)

That smell was the majic elf farts they seal em with. Yours is now ruined.... :eek: :D

Wow, I'm not the only one!

When two pieces of anno'ed alum get really tight and you unscrew them there is a smell.

Loc-tite can also be noticed by smell when you break a seal.

Just use a rubber strap wrench to tighten it. I used one to take it off as soon as I got mine. Didn't have any problems with it getting loose when I played this weekend.

Hey Rob, mine just came so it will be here to see tomorrow.

They are locktighted together but should not come apart easily.

That's very odd because mine came off very easily at first.

It's all tightened down good, so not really an issue.

I'll go out on a limb, and suggest blue loc-tite?
