That was all I was told, I said I'd post up what the report was.

It's possible the loctite type product had not adhered in the presence of anodising, it can take a very special heptane base accelerator/prep solution to enable some loctite products to adhere with full strength to anodising.

Have seen this problem a few times now.

The lock tite problem does not explain why the "muzzle brake" part of the suppressor snapped off or why so many units from that manufacturers get the tube female threads pulling off the "monocore" male threads ( at the muzzle side of the suppressor).There might also be a design problem or a design fault?
