filler screws
« on: March 12, 2012, 04:11:31 PM »
Hi, have scopes on most of my barrels(10" original contender bull barrels). Have removed front sight, what size filler screws do I need to fill the hole?
Thanks,
Jerry

Itcnav,
 
Junior is correct they are 6-48, Forster Products made in the good ol USA.  About any supplier will have them, pretty common item.

If you are a customer of someone who mounts scopes in your area you most likely can get all you want free.  They have bunches they have taken out of new guns and I have always gotten all I need for the asking.
