You have to screw the screw in under a perfect angle to get it to go in. I spend 20 minutes last weekend helping a friend install his. I found that angling the screw slightly towards the back while screwing in of the rifle made it go in easier.

I just dont think it should be that much of a pain to install...it should be made to go right on. What do they call that "drop in"![]()
Yup! Took me a while to get it on and screw in as well. I think it's the blue stuff that makes it hard to screw in. It actually got me worried that I cross threaded my receiver but I took it out and thankfully I didnt.
I had to dress the inner mating surfaces of my MIAD with a file a bit too. No big, it's still solid. Grant made a great suggestion though, seat the grip screw once BEFORE attempting it with the grip in place...saves a lot of sweat and swearing![]()
May be I'm just lucky but I just use RRA hex screws on my 2 miads because I hate flathead grip screws, but I've had no issues.
If the screw is too long it can protrude into the receiver and keep the trigger from engaging or fully engaging the hammer sear.
Most grip screws are not too long, but I would not rely on luck when you could have made a rifle that dumps the entire mag when you chamber a round.
