Picked up an old 1" flashlight mount but it's missing the screw that clamps the flashlight in.  Anyone know the specs for the scre so I can find out a replacement?

Pics for reference

My vote is your neighborhood hardware store.

I believe that's the same special-head screw we used for the rear iron sights, etc. The shape of the slotted head is a bit unique and was a great way to spot air-soft fakes of KAC products Attachment Attached File
years ago. That being said, it's a 10-32. Of course we used 1/8" hex-head screws for the same purposes through the years as well.

Ended up being a 6-32 screw that fit the flashlight clamp portion.  Seems like the 10-32 are for the rail clamps.
