3 years back, I had owned a Stag AR15 rifle for about a year and a half with about 2,000 rounds through it.

I went hog hunting in the middle of Seguin and it was wet and humid. Several hours later, I went back the the trailer to catch some sleep, I held the rifle by it's sling and placed it on the table, when I noticed much more rattle than usual. The castle nut had come so loose that the bolt would not function properly. I just barely touched the castle nut and a spring shot out! I have no idea what would have happened if I had fired it.

I sold the stag for something MUCH better.

I would locktite it AND stake it.
