My Para 2 has a clip that I'm able to wobble by hand when the screws are torqued. Anyone have a trick to keep it still? I could torque tighter, but don't want to strip the screws. Thanks guys!
 
If you're careful, you should be able to do it without stripping the screws. You could also try using some Loctite or Teflon Tape if the problem is the screws loosening slightly over time (i.e., the same trick as for pivot screws that loosen over time).
 
Tightening the screws so the clip doesn't wobble isn't really a trick but it will work. I would start with that.
 
What do you think is wrong with it. I mean if tightish screws aren't holding it n place, is there something else busted?
 
No, you are being too careful. As they used to say in the service station I worked in 8 million years ago, "if force doesn't work, you're not using enough." :D
 
Turns out I was being too shy about applying sufficient torque. Problem solved. Thanks guys.

Same thing happened to me, I fixed it by tightening. BTW, don't carry the knife clipped to your pocket while the clip is loose. There's a risk that one of the screws falls off and out of the pocket.
