LongwalkerSource for scope mount screws?
Does anyone know where I can find a replacement screw for a Suhler claw mount? I have broken the windage adjustment screw and need to replace it. It has a shaft diameter of 4mm,screw pitch of 0.7, shaft length of 7mm and has a large flat slotted head, 8.5mm diameter. My gunsmith said he could build one if I buy the specialized threading die, it would cost about $80 to buy the die and make the screw!
I would also like to find a set of scope ring screws for an older Sako ringmount, seems like any metric gun screws are very scarce in Canada.
Any tips appreciated!
Brownells the first place i'd look...
