Purple Loc-Tite (222) will also work just fine. These are designed as chemical lock washers and you can turn the screw to adjust them. But please feel free to leave it out and see it it works without it. I would throw that sight in the trash bin, if it were me, and replace it with a Millet Rear made for the Gold Cups. It used to be about $50.00 or so. I nail the cross pin in with Green Loc-tite Sleeve Retainer (640) , also. Every Gold Cup I worked on had the front sight staked on right by me and I installed a rear Millet in place of the one it came with. I give people a life time warranty on my work and I can't back up junk sights. If they do not wish to replace what I want to throw away, then I always pass on the job and sent them to a smith that needs the work.
