The “no gunsmith” design of that bolt release button attachment is asking a lot of the set screw to clamp and hold it in place. Defiantly used some blue loctite on the set screw.

Better yet get a bolt release button that is attached by a screw that is drilled / tapped into the factory bolt release.

I've had one on my 930JM for years and thousands of shells and it's never come loose
Installed w/ blue loctite on the screw
