Hi all - I just bought a late '40's Win 94 that came with a Lyman aperture sight installed. I took the whole thing apart to give it a good cleaning and noticed that one of the two screws that holds the Lyman sight to the receiver is stripped. What should I do?
Based on the castbullets website http://www.castbullet.com/misc/tdown.htm I presume it's an 8-40 screw that may be fixed by cleaning out with a tap. Is this the right thread and a good idea? Should I also replace the screw (or both of them) at the same time? Or is this a job for a gunsmith?
Thx!
