I remember buying a few "driod" screw kits in from the UK that had better heads on them and suited their purpose much better. must have a look to see if I still have them.]]> Mon, 07 Apr 2025 08:48:17 +0000 www.kiwiairgunners.co.nz/forum_posts.asp?TID=1192&PID=12251#12251 2240 breach screw : Excelllent. www.kiwiairgunners.co.nz/forum_posts.asp?TID=1192&PID=12250#12250 Author: Pauly5

FYI Fast trade in Hastings have a couple dozen 4-48 x 1/4 that'll fit the breech. They ain't cheap though, I've just ordered a couple, I'll tell you how it goes. ]]> Wed, 02 Apr 2025 12:59:01 +0000 www.kiwiairgunners.co.nz/forum_posts.asp?TID=1192&PID=12234#12234 2240 breach screw : Pauly5 wrote:You can buy the... www.kiwiairgunners.co.nz/forum_posts.asp?TID=1192&PID=12233#12233 Author: Kris

The small screw can be replaced with something else small enough, although you may need to retap the hole, which would need a threading tap. If you are going to play around with the 2240, maybe worth getting a small tap and die set, or you can buy individual taps from aliexpress.


The screw is a 4-48 x 1/4 I've since found out.
