Encore forend replacement screws - Brownells
« on: March 02, 2007, 04:22:19 AM »
I want to add some thin washers to one of my forends to float it, and I believe I will need some slightly longer screws to do so.  I recall someone here posting that they got longer screws from Brownells. Can anyone give me the threads, length, etc?  I'm being a bit lazy here, but would appreciate some help if you will Thanks.

I would like that link also.  I tried to find them on the Brownell's web site.  I can not believe what a mess their web site is.  If you enter one item, it gives you something else, plus 500 more items that you did not query for.  Tom.

Here's one of the threads with the 8-40 screws link at Brownell's.

there is a guy on ebay that sells these screws for a lot cheaper than i've seen at any shooting supply store.  i bought some and they worked fine.  i'm thinking they may be originally longer and he cuts them down.  i would check with him if you can't find them at brownells.

I BOUGHT FOREND SCREWS FOR MY T/C G2 AT LOCAL HARDWARE FOR 35 CENTS. THEY WERE BLUE TORK HEAD.
