NZ85B grip thread size?

[ShawnC6]

Hey there,

So I purchased a NZ85B (Norinco CZ85B knockoff) as my first pistol.

I excitedly ordered some aftermarket grips from Dlask (designed for the CZ pistols) and to my disappointment they come with a fastener with a different thread size. Size 20 Torx, smaller than the holes on my grips.

Before I go with trial and error trying to find one that fits, or grind down the ugly factory grip screws, does someone know the size for the screws in the grip of the NZ85B?

Thanks.

Metric?

I'm not sure.

The Dlask are Torx size 20 which is 3.86mm but they drop into the grip holes.
The factory screws are some random flat head screws, fine thread.

Don't know much info other than that.

if you have a tap and die set , there's usually a thread pitch gauge in them

I don't but it wouldn't be a bad idea to purchase.

I bought a NZ 85B from Canada Ammo recently. Great shooter.
Loving it so far. The grip is not great. It was loss. I just apply grip tape on it.
Buy 13 lbs main spring and reduced power firing pin spring and install them.
Shoot as good as my Shadow.

I already bought the new grips. So I'll definitely be putting them on.

I have yet to shoot it, I'll see how that goes. I was looking at the main springs.

Why reduced power firing pin spring?

Buddy at work let me borrow some thread pitch gauges. Closest I can tell it's a metric 0.5 or a tiny bit smaller....
