Sidearms & Scatterguns Red Dot Dilemma

Question made it to the range today with ARCO, after about 75 rounds it loosened up, would a little locktite do the trick?
I did hand tighten it down and ran another 75 rounds without issue. Still waiting on JMCustom for holster
not a complaint Tony is still within his online posted time frame. Brought my G17 along for a side by side comparison
the T-1 still has a sharper red dot image when compared with ARCO P2.

Use a torque wrench and blue Vibratite.

The after market is missing out. The OG mini dot sights..... 25 years ago (how is that even possible?) came with such great, form fitting ridged dust/darkness covers. Now no one seems to care. You're lucky if you get a floppy rubber one.

A hot glue gun abomination with neodymium magnets, but it keeps the the dust and dirt and sweat out of the window and extends battery life. I keep the cord looped on the belt clip, it pops off on the draw.

I put a dab of blue on my ACRO screw, and after it’s set I mark it with a paint pen.
