Hi All,
I have a M2 Tactical which has 4 holes drilled in the receiver for a weaver rail and another couple of holes for the rear ghost ring sight. I'm wanting to source some plug screws for these holes for when I swap out the barrel to a field one for duck shooting.
Currently the 4 holes for the rail have the plastic plugs in them from the factory but i'd still like to get actual plug screws in case I use a rail at some point then want to remove it. According to this thread the holes on an M4 are metric M4x.75 not SAE #8-40. Is this the same for the M2? And also are the two holes for the ghost ring sight the same size as the 4 for the rail?
Has anybody found a source for plug screws that are the correct size? I sent Benelli CS a query about this and asked for exact thread size and whether they have plug screws and all I got in response was "Most people will use a crew and grind it off flush on the inside." Which didn't really answer any of my questions. You would think they would stock these screws.
