Hey, so I went to loctite my Troy irons on my new Noveske and noticed that the front sight doesn't seem to "lock up" solidly like my rear sight. I checked the net and all the other pictures I looked at seem to lock up nice and tight. Is this okay? Will it cause any problems?

They are BACK UP Iron sights! They are not meant to shoot high power matches as Camp Perry. Hell--look in the various SF pic threads and you will notice many of our Brave men and women don't even put BUIS on their rifles!

Yes, Troys lock up is just fine for a Back Up Iron Sight. Sight them in, fold em down. Forget, Enjoy

As long as the base is flush with the rail you are ok.

The little end piece might be upside down...mine appears to fit a bit snugger.
