48376 Weaver Thumbnut Tactical Mounts SPR 1" web lookup says: 6-48 screws: 15 in/lbs 8-40 screws: 18 in/lbs
I'm identifying these as the cap screws so, first question is, how do I know what screws I have? understanding that there isn't much difference in the spec but was wondering if there was a difference - deforming the tube would not be cool.
Also, any guidance on the thumbscrew mounting to the receiver.
Where should I be applying thread locker, if at all.
