WTB 1917 action screws
Can't find these in the various catalogs, or out of stock.

I need two sets if possible. Original length.
Just the action bottom metal two screws.

text 719/504-1932 or pm.

Thank you,
George

Wow, woman told me today; Out of Stock.

***Will check again. Hell of a deal. In stock now. Just placed the order. Lousy help there today.
Many thanks Tom.

Jack First has them: $9 each plus $12 shipping. HUH?? For 2or 4 screws? Just mail in a small padded envelope for a buck potage.

For many companies postage has become a huge profit base.

These days any package/envelope that cannot run through their scanner gets charged an arm and leg for "handling".

The cheapest you can send a small padded envelope is $4, depending on the customers location. I haven't been able to mail a small padded envelope via first class for a $1, ever. Maybe back in 1970 you could?

I get free shipping from Brownells because they like me so much.
Or it could be the $50 a year I also pay them.
But yes, postage is very expensive.

The big issues is the USPS, their first class postage dependability had gone to hell. If I mail or ship by them it’s going Priority Mail, even for envelopes!

Well, I ordered 4 screws @ $3.75 each.
Postage $5.60, CO tax: All in: $22.50

Still expensive for screws, but when they are special made and we are in a bind, & no one else has them. Just do it & stfu, right?

Some places don't gouge.

Again, thanks Tom.
