If I can't find the size of a threading I have then what can I do? Story is long but the previous owner rethreaded it/had someone do it (professionally) and I don't know what size the screw is. It's larger then the standard cocker frame to body screw and that's about all the info I have. I do not have a caliper to measure it for me. I'm trying to purchase it online so I don't have to take my body to home depot, open all the boxes and try them out (and cut them at home). Any tricks to it? If I can't find out I'll just take it to home depot.

go to home depot and pick up a thread gauge while your there so it doesn't happen again.

What is it going in exactly? Standard frame mounting screws on a cocker are 10-32. If they went larger, next logical step would be to go 1/4". 20 thread count is common, but 24 is available. The hammer lug is 1/4-28.

Give some details before I go into a full paragraph

Will look into the thread gauge. How much do they generally run?

Give some details before I go into a full paragraph I don't know where to start with information. I was hoping for a tip of some sort i.e. shove clay down and twist to get the "imprint" and such (bad idea).

I will try to get better information.

FYI: I was planning to purchase it from you hvac.

I thought it was 1/4-20 and -28, with -24 a specialty size.

You're correct. I mistyped. I got the 28 part right on the lug; dont know where the 24 came from.

Unless to find a screw that is the same to test with, you wont know. The only gun I can think of that uses 1/4 20 screws is a Defiant.

Maybe take a picture?

I hate to bring up a dead thread, but what's the average length for frame screws. I know it varies, but say, for slider frames. And is the thread for the screws for ASA's and duckbills the same as frame? I wanna say yes, but would like to varify.

[c6quad]

the thread size for most bottom line stuff is 10-32x3/4"

I have some 10-32's that don't thread well into my Phantom 45 frame to mount the stock... I haven't mounted it because I don't want to screw up the threads (pun intended)

I thought the Phantom bottomline threads were standard 10-32
