Grip screws on My 1911 LW commander keep coming loose

Blue Loctite for grips screws and other assembly screws needed for cleaning/maintenance

Red Loctite is for Scope mounts.

And if ya didn't know, Loctite actually is RTV. It's just optimized for guns.

No, it's not. "RTV" is an acronym for Room Temperature Vulcanizing, meaning that it's a synthetic rubber compound. The RTVs we typically find in auto parts stores are silicone.

Loctite thread lockers are methacrylate adhesives, not synthetic rubber. They are also anaerobic (cure without air), not room temperature vulcanizing.
