Help! My T-1 is stuck!

The factory screws are hex head, Freddy do you mean Torx head?

Most likely.

Yep use a small EZ-out.

Speaking of which, do you have a link to these? USMC03 and I have been looking for these and we can never seem to find them. He has a grip screw that needs removing, but it's all stripped out and I just want these to throw in the toolbox for whatever.

My bad. I meant Torx as Hex Head is the same as Allen Head.

I purchased an EZ Out tool with a #1 bit from Home Depot. I am sure that Loews and Ace Hardware might have them as well.

I bought mine at Sears.

The “official” tool was purchased at Lowes.

I remember that day!

I've already got my Aimpoint T-1 Micro back from Aimpoint, with the base removed and a set of new replacement screws (though I used the ones that came with the LaRue mount to install it in my LT-660). I contacted John and he was courteous and professional. This kind of service is why I'll buy Aimpoint again.

I read this thread by accident prior to getting my H1 heated the screw with an iron hand turned with supplied wrench and still stripped the last of my four screws. I am so frustraited. Calling Aimpoint for replacements in the morning

I'm confident Aimpoint will make it right.
