Quick little question. Just had my Franchi Affinity 20 drilled and tapped this past week for a Sumtoy FF/Venom base. Question is what torque do I need to install the base at? Going to use some blue loctite with the screws just wanted to see how tight I need to torque the screws down to to prevent stripping.
William at Sumtoy should be able to help you, I just hope we have a spot on the roaring 20 for you this year!
just snug it hand tight. Them are small screws and aluminium.
I used an OR3GUN sight saddle to mount an ff3 to my 935. The instructions said to use a small drop of blue locktight and do not exceed 12 inch lbs. Wait 24 hrs. before mounting your optic to the base.
I followed the same instructions when mounting a SumToy base to my 20 gauge.

Very good information. The Wheeler Engineering "FAT Torque Wrench Screwdriver" is just a great tool for mounting anything gun related.
Those OR3GUN products are also top shelf. I only wish they'd been available years ago.
Good post.
Thanks,
