Are you talking about the pin is coming loose? put a zip-tie through the ring and the hole in the pin. Just make sure you have some side cutters in your rig to cut it if you need to use it.

I tighten mine up with a small adjustable wrench when not in use then keep the wrench handy for when I need to get them off.

I just painted mine- just takes a screwdriver to get them loose off. I had a problem with people stealing them while stationed in Louisiana so I got the screw to tighten ones and spray painted the threads- Kind of a pain but have not lost one since!
