Does anyone know the size of tap and die needed for the brass rails?
If so please tell me what they are.
There seems to be at least two sizes.
I have noticed that when replacing butt plates, that the screws supplied by Schaff do not fit some rails.
It seems to be a different thread, since they seem to fit for almost a couple of turns.
With a die of the proper size they might be made to work.
The screws to be purchased are just normal round head.
Is there a source for the proper ones?
