I'm having problems with the clamp that came with my Choate magazine tube extension for my 870 (20" barrel). The problem is one that some of you probably encountered as well, my clamp keeps working (shooting) loose.
The clamp is the 2 part type with a threaded bolt going through one part of the clamp and then screwing into a threaded hole on the other part of the clamp. I am concerned that if I tighten the bolt down too much I will strip the threads in the clamp since the clamp is very thin and the threads inside are few.
Any solutions or sugestions? I tried placing some electrical tape around the barrel and tube first. That seemed to help a lot, but for aesthetic reasons I would like to do it without the tape.
TIA,
