Re: I am slightly irritated by Nitecore's clip
my clip was bad the moment i unwrapped it. one side was ok, but the other wouldnt thread in, when i tried screwing them in, it would just fall out.
i used some pliers to compress the hole on the backing plate, making it so the screw cant even thread in. making new threads as i torqued it down. then compressed the holes on the clip itself, i also tweaked the clip so it may fit better around my d10.
i torqued down both screws alternately, used red loctite, and even a tiny bit of krazy glue afterwards, and its been very secure since.
i do agree that its a good clip, horrible backing plate and screws.
i was even thikning about riveting the clip on, it would look much nicer, and near impossible to come off. but i didnt want to drive out 20 miles to my friends shop, since he has the tools.
