Put some teflon tape on the hose, loctite is overkill anywhere else because it will be impossible to take the bolts off again.
I make all my own mods.

loctile is great but RED loctile isnt ideal for paintball since we service alot of the parts.

so i suggest BLUE loctile a more watery and weaker loctile. very good for paintball or learn to write in the treads w/ teflon.

i learned it from a guy at a machine shop. its when you wrap the teflon tape so when you screw whatever you wrap the teflon doesnt in warp it self, and to write in the threads. were the teflon is only between the threads be your fingers twisting it so much that is stat only between the threads, being better.

teflon on the hose is nice, BLUE loctile would work good too.

as for the drop you really dont need any loctile or teflon, if it loosens tighten it back up.

i have blue loctile on my CIP uni-mount but it came stock and it was actually a pain b/c it was harder to screw in and out when i need to service my markers
