Need Bolt for Thumb Hole Stock
« on: September 02, 2010, 05:16:21 AM »
Ordered and received the laminated thumb hole stock for my grandson's Handi Rifle.  Ordered this from the factory (ie Remington), and they failed to include a short bolt to attach the stock. When I called last week, they said that they would send one out asap. When I called back today, they said it was on backorder with no delivery date.....

Any suggestion as to where I can get one? Went and bought a regular 3/8 x 24 x 2 hex head bolt, and not enough room tighten.

Trying to get this thing together before taking him antelope hunting in a couple of weeks.

 You need an Allen socket head ( buttonhead or knurled ) 2" x 3/8 x 24f on that model.  Try Home
Depot - Lowes - Good Hardware store or on line Bolt Depot.com. but the shp might kill you.   Fred

Send me a pm if you can't find a allen head one locally and I will put one in the mail for you. I should have a SS 2" 3/8x24 at work if that is what the size is. Let me know Kurt

I've just sent in an order to the link posted above for a few of the 3/8-24x2" Button Head Socket Cap Screws as well as a few 3/8-24x4" Hex Head Cap Screws for adding stocks as I am slowly getting my orphan barrels fitted with frames and stocks. Also had some odds and ends of other bolts, washers etc. included. The total shipping for USPS Ground was $6.96  
I've never ordered anything from them before, so I'll reserve comment until the package arrives.



Bill

UPDATE

Order was shipped out on 9/07 and arrived today (09/10) via USPS Priority Mail. Considering the long Holiday Day weekend the delivery time was good. All the items ordered were as described and excellant quality.
61 cents each for the3/8-24x2" Button Socket Cap Screws
89 cents each for the 3/8-24x4" Hex Cap Screws

The Fastenal bolts jut out into the web of your hand a bit. And personally, I had no hex key (5/16"?) to fit it.
