Tweaker Posted January 23, 2006 Author Share Posted January 23, 2006 I finally found a hex key set at NAPA that has both the .035 and a .028 key. I'll pick them up this evening. NAPA part# SER56324. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevin c Posted January 25, 2006 Share Posted January 25, 2006 Be careful not to crank down too much. I managed to strip out one of the screws that way. If I were industrious enough, and knew how, I'd drill it out and retap for a larger set screw. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's where I'm at with a Springfield 1911 I'm working on. It came this way from the factory. I tried heating it with a soldering iron and even broke off a tool in it. I finally stripped out the hex shaped hole so that I'm going to have to drill it out. I bought a set of left handed drill bits but the smallest is 1/8" which is still too large.
