The front sight screw on my Garand does not want to budge. At all. I sprayed it with some PB Blaster but it still didn't want to move after about 30+ minutes of soaking.
I'm thinking there is some sort of loctite on there. It is a mid-400k Springfield serial #, so definitely around in WWII. Was it ever armory practice to loctite this screw in place? Obviously anything could have happened since it left the army (I bought it used, not through the CMP), but I'm just wondering if these screws normally hard so hard to remove.
