GunslingerDK Posted October 6, 2012 Share Posted October 6, 2012 I have bought a DAA thumb rest for my STI Grand Master. The holes in the thumb rest correspond the holes in the Cmore mount however the screws with which the Cmore is mounted are not long enough to accommodate a thumb rest! I measured the threading on the screws which are 40G 1/8" according to a threading measure tool. The screw i counter sunk and have a diameter of 0.123". Does anybody know where I can find usable screws?? What do the rest of you Open shooters do?? Help is much appreciated DVC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
usmc0326 Posted October 6, 2012 Share Posted October 6, 2012 Fastenal usually has a large selection of hardware. Unfortunately if you want just one or two they require special order most of the time. Just make sure you get the correct grade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GunslingerDK Posted October 7, 2012 Author Share Posted October 7, 2012 Thanks a lot guys I wrote an email to Brazos asking if these screws also fit STI mounts. I have also contacted STI to see if they have longer screw for their scope mounts. If they don't come through I will take you up on your kind offer to send me a few!

kineteks Posted October 10, 2012 Share Posted October 10, 2012 I believe you're looking for what's commonly referred to as a 5-40 screw, if you're located in Europe I'm not sure who'll carry them but if you strike out let us know, they're easy to get over here.
