What size is the barrel shroud screw? Can they be found easy, even if they arent flush? I just need one to put in and dont care if its original. Unless someone is selling them.

Slim, I don't know the size or thread, but in my infinite wisdom I once put a non-original screw in there and found out real quick that the length is what matters. If it's a tad long it will jam against the barrel and lock it up tighter than dick's hat band.

Barrel shroud screws

Sarco has 'em brand new and for peanuts. Just picked up two, along with some other stuff for a couple of USGI kits I'm working on. Think hard about what other parts you may need and order them at the same time or the shipping costs way more than the screws.

bmgparts.com has them for a couple of bucks.

slim, if I recall, you need some rear sight parts and Sarco carries them so you might want to place an order for the shroud screw too.

Hmmmm, I believe it a 10 X 32 screw pitch. I've used Butten Head Cap Screws on them.. They're strong and don't look to bad....Lou

10x32 is correct - 3/8" is plenty long
