Where to buy a forend dovetail screw mount?

[GarrettJ]

Or whatever you call that thing.  It's the little threaded female section that drifts in the dovetail that your forend screws into.  Nurmich calls it a "dovetail lock".  Of course, they've been sold out forever.

As you can see I managed to over-torque one. 

An email to T/C a year or two ago went unanswered. 

Any suggestions?

I've seen them on eBay. Just search under "contender".

Call TC.  They never were good with email.

They are on ebay all the time if you deal with them just type in Thompson contender may be a long way down the list but someone has them all the time.around 5.00 each.Or you can give Ed a call he will have them and he is also a sponser on this site Email dont work with ed.

And another suggestion...........
 
Just snug the screw, I never put any major torque on mine.  If you torque them them can eventually become loose in the dovetail if if they do not break.
