TRS-25 replacement screw

[oppy]

Hey all,

Just had the misfortune of breaking the screw used to fasten my TRS-25 into a Picatinny rail. Near as I can tell, the screw/bolt size is M3.5-0.6 x 28mm. Does anybody have any suggestions where a fellow can get a replacement for this screw, preferably in the Edmonton area? Going to try Edmonton Nut & Bolt on Monday, but I'm not optimistic.

TIA

Good luck let us know if you are successful. I have been looking for that size for almost 8 months since I don’t want to buy a pack of 100.

I stripped out the threading on the claw on my trs-25, I ended up re tapping it to an 8/32 thread. I have a box of 8/32 allen head screws at hand and that solved the problem for good. The factory screw is too small if you ask me.

Oh, cool. Just call them up and ask?

Either that or email.

A short to the point email of what you are looking for, with your full name and address included is usually all it takes.
