I recently bought a First Samco Mag Coupler and luckly I have the memory of a gnat and have already lost the screws to it.  Just asking if anyone has had experience with those couplers and if the screws are essential to it.

the mags fall out of the coupler without the screws since they provide the tension.
Hardware store will have something. They are pretty common

you wouldn't happen to know the exact size of the screw? Should I just take the coupler in and look around?

probably the simplest thing to do.
Just find a nut that fits the hole and find the matching screw. done

so you actually know the mags will fall out from experience?

yep. It may not fall out initially but after a few rounds they will.
Try to do a quick mag change without the screw and see what happens

k and when that doesn't work i'll go to the store.  Since i lost the screws i'm unaware of how many there were.  It looks like there are wholes for two bigger screws and two smaller screws.  Do i just need those two big ones?
