STI/Bomar rear elevation screw


TMC

Recommended Posts

The elevation screw on my STI made Bomar style rear sight is stripped. It looks like the threads in the slide are ok. Does anybody know where to get a replacement screw?

Thanks

I thought the sight was an STI but it is a Caspian. I called them and they sent a couple from returned sights and only chaged a couple bucks for shipping.

The sight is in an Infinity slide and when I went to chase the threads I found that the hole was not threaded all the way through to the firing pin channel. I'm sure this caused the problem in the first place when, at some point, I cranked the sight all the way down and the threads at the end of the screw were flattened. When I adjusted it back up there wasn't much left to hold onto the threads in the slide.
