Xenos-Fear · May 27th, 2005, 12:19

Hey, got a problem here... my screw for my TM M4 mag release button stripped off when I try to remove it. long story... anyway, does anybody know the kind of screw I need to replace it ? Also, where I can find this ?

Thanks !

Did you strip the head?
Or did you lose the screw altogether?

If you just stripped the head, it's still usable. Take a dremel and basically dremel the mag release button until you form a flathead screw head with the existing screw.

If you lost it....then purchase an aftermarket mag release assembly?

I've replaced two on teammates guns, and I used an M2x6 (metric) countersunk flat head screw in each case to replace it. Guess just call around local machine shop supply stores and ask for them.
