Dear ARFcommers!
I managed to lockthe screws on my LT 104 with EASILY removable Loctite, I had SUCH difficulties in getting them out, so I dont trust them anymore. Anyway, 2 are screwed up - really ;-) What is the size of these screws, and where do I get some? I did some searching on this Forums, but couldn´t find an answer. Furthermore I contacted LaRue, but no answer so far. TIA, Hemann |

THANKS!
No, I don´t play with my guns after Midnight , it was MIDDAY here in Austria ... surprisingly many Black Rifle Lovers there ( and in Europe, where allowed by Law, in general ).
I didn´t call, partially because of Time Zone reasons, I did fill in the contact form on your Homepage. Thanks in advance, Hermann |

It happens... I messed up one of the torx holding on the grip adapter panel. Used a dremel tool and cut it so I could take it off with a flat head screw driver. <a href="http://s1218.photobucket.com/user/clamhop/media/LaRue%20SBR%20556/GripAdapterPanal.jpg.html" target="_blank">http://i1218.photobucket.com/albums/dd416/clamhop/LaRue%20SBR%20556/GripAdapterPanal.jpg</a> And then I cleaned the rifle in the front loader...

Even bought the drill bits to remove stripped screws and it didn't work. I hate T screws. |

LAST SCREW OUT!
A friend drilled away the screw head, took apart the ring halves, and there was just enought thread there to get a grip with a wrench! Paid with Beer, of course :-) Now I just need the screws, and I am back shooting ( ahem, not that I have nothing else to shoot ... :-))) We both are the opinion, that the screws were GLUED in by the gunsmith, not just secured with easy disassemble Loctite, like I do. PLEASE LaRue, where to send how much Money? Thnks to all, Hermann ( and I am glad, that I am not the only one who had that problem ) |

Everybody knows you have to break down the rifle first... It helps get things clean if they are able to bang around a bit on "gentle." A.W.D. |
