Post by SniperWolf »

Can someone tell me the size/dimension of the scope mount screws. I'd like to find some with different heads, thanks

Someone's going to chime in soon I'm sure. I can't remember if they're 3-32 × 1/4" or 5-32 × 1/4". They have button head screws but I changed mine to socket cap head screws. I think I'll be changing all my fasteners to titanium. If someone in the know could also tell me the size and length of the arrow retainer screws, front stock to mainframe and rear stock to mainframe screw sizes and length that'd be much appreciated. Hope you don't mind me borrowing your thread SniperWolf. :wink: Thanks,

Paul

I know this is an older thread. Can you either use a nut sert (sp?) or drill and tap for the next size larger machine screw? :?:

Yes you can you might have to make holes larger in the scope mount though.A 10/32 screw will self tap into the trigger housing just keep the pressure up when first using them.I did mine with 10/32 machine screws and no more loose screws,and blue loc tite.
