CHF 5.56 upper handguards tightness

I took both my CHF uppered 16"ers to the range and did about 150 rounds each, when I got home I checked the tightness of my handguards screws and they were both lose.

Besides using blue Loctite, what should I torque the screws to???

Just hand tight and let the locktite do the work.

I have had that heppen on an Aero handguard. Tighten those screws too tight and they WILL snap.
