These screws have a small nylon 'pellet' implanted in a hole. Next week I'll see if I can source them in SS from Fastenal, maybe MDI can switch to these style.
I dont know about you guys, however i think using stainless hardware on a billet receiver is a bad idea, should be a carbon steel screw shouldn't it?
did' int Maccabee make a quick release takedown too ???
I dunno about general hardware, but the last snowboard I bought came with nylock SCREWS. Basically a standard screw but with a slot cut down the length of it (like a keyway) filled with a rubbery material similar to that of nylock nuts

I am a kit hor(der)
Man i literally just ordered a set and got it a few days later, i genuinely feel bad for people who ordered a year ago and still dont have theirs. Regarding the take down screw though, i do not really have confidence in it at all. Worst part is the recievers dont align naturally where the holes line up, so you have to wiggle it and find a sweet spot, but this runs the risk of obviously stripping the screw. Not overly impressed with anything on the mdi reciever set, but it does what it says it will, to a very minimal standard. If they were selling them for 300 bucks itd be a different story.
Just a small update, i just took the screw out completely to see why it keeps coming loose, oh wow its THE WRONG SIZE GOD DAMNED SCREW. good job maccabee, ive given you the benefit of the doubt too many times but now this is the last straw, you guys have no business operating machinery.
