What is the standard bolt size for an Encore thumbhole buttstock?

Like this one.

I am pretty sure it is the same as contenders which is 1/4-20 but the length you will have to measure because some stocks are drilled deeper than others and it is a socket head which you can get at most ace hardware stores or home depo or lowes. you can also use a plated hex head 1/2-20 bolt in the length you need but you would need a 1/4 inch drive socket set to install.

If you have a Dremel and a cutoff wheel you could cut a slot for a screwdriver.

just buy an allen head bolt so you can use a allen wrench

Any thoughts? Noticed a Fastenal store locally.

Make sure once you find the right size bolt that it is not too long, because it can interfere with your hammer spring.  This will not allow the hammer to stay cocked if the bolt is too long.  Washer a longer bolt if you have to.  Hope this helps.

Fastenal is great if you want to buy 100 of them.   They sell in bulk at ok prices.  If you want 1 they charge you for 100 though.  
Find a Napa, or other parts store or Hardware store.    Or call T/C custom shop and they will send ya one.

+1 for T/C

but... I ordered 2 springs 6 weeks ago and they just came on Saturday.

The one good thing is it was free, no questions asked other than where do we ship to.

Were those replacement hammer springs or what for?  Just curious.  I've had them send me fore-end screws and a new extractor, and it was in my mailbox in 3 days.
