Where can I find replacement screws for an 1899 B? Thanks
Which screws?
Tang screws? Reciever screws? Forearm screws?
Tang and receiver. Thanks
Filler screws or tang screws for the tang?
Which receiver screws do you need?
I need both receiver screws and the two tang screws that hold the tang sight on the rifle. Also would like to have two filler screws for the receiver(two threaded holes in the left side of the receiver that were drilled and threaded for a scope mount)????
Can you fetch us a picture of the holes you want filled?
I'm cornfused.
Lightfoot can help ya,if you can help identify exactly what it is you need.
Best,JP.
Check my revised post above.
Do you know the size of the holes in the side of the receiver?
No Sir.I don't.
Them sight attaching screws is a bargain at that price.
Looking down on the side of the receiver where the brass cartrige counter is located there are two holes drilled that I think were drilled for a scope mount. I would like to fill those holes with screws. Also would like to replace the two standard receiver screws-one small head-one large head. The two tang screws that hold the Lyman peep sight need replacing also. Thanks
I will find out and let you know.
Tang screws you can get from Mike.
The reciever screws shouldn't be a real hard thing to find either but the holes you need filled where someone had the side scope installed will be if you don't know the thread size of the holes.
Try seeing if the tang sight screws you have now fit the holes in the side where the scope was.
The tang screw is just a little to big to fit the scope mount holes.
They are probably #6-48 threads then but could be #6-40. Do you have some scope base screws to try in them? They would be 6-48.
I have an arrow head that screws onto an arrow shaft and it fits. Don't know what the size is.
If you could borrow the correct screws as a template, you can have Evans Obsolete Screws make them for you, but they are not gonna be cheap.
http://www.customscrewsandmore.com/They made a set of tang sight screws for a Marbles S2 tang sight to go on my Savage 1903. Worth every penny. I might have posted about it here.
