Tacstar sidesaddle screw size?

Post by wonderwolf » Wed Aug 23, 2017 4:08 am

Anybody happen to know the screw size for the mounting plate (the ones that affix the mounting plate to the shell carrier) on the Tacstar side saddle? I'm repairing a few plates missing their screws and upgrading them to stainless bushings for the action screws.

It's 10-32 UNF for the front screw, 1/4"-28 UNF for the rear.

The smaller screws...the 6 tiny screws.

Oh. I'm not sure about those screws. I would suggest taking one of those little screws into your local fastener store. Unless they're some goofy proprietary thread, the folks working there should be able to measure the threads and help you find replacements, or at least tell you what to look for.
