45 (Blazer) Grip panel screw size?

Mayvik · 05-31-2008, 07:56 PM

What size are the grip panel screws on 45/Blazer frames? Putting some aftermarket panels on and of course, the screws that came with the panels are too large, and the stock screws are too short.

length?

I would just use a small o-ring to space out the longer ones. I have done that many times.

6-32 sounds right. I think they are pretty much standard for all colt .45 based grips.

If you highlight the 3rd link I posted it is labeled 6-32

I'll give that a try and see if I can find some longer ones. Thanks.

any machine shop worth a damn will have more screws than you will ever need. You could always cut the ones you have that are too big if you dont have 005 orings to use as stoppers.

6-32 1/2" from Home Depot parts bin worked perfectly.
