    Stripped my SRO screws

    Anyone know the dimensions of the SRO screws. I went to ACE and thought the guy nailed it, but they went in part the way then stopped.

    I sent a message to Trijy so we will see.

    I think #6-32 x 7/16".

    ETA: if you stripped the original screws, there might still be pieces of the thread in the hole, which may explain why the screws you bought are only going in partially.

    Thanks, but I stripped the top star slot dealio. I'll try some 6-32X7/16's

    Get American made screws. You wont find any at big box stores.

    They had some that fit in the "gun" bin at ACE. They didn't have the correct cone head but I put in with blue locktite and 12 inch pounds. Hope it stays put.
