Parts source

[gap]

Does anyone have a good source for '03a3 small parts? Specifically, I'm looking for an original stacking swivel screw. I know the screw is peaned and is not supposed to be removed, but the one I have came out without stripping the band (had not read posts on this issue prior to removing said screw!) However, the screw head was buggered up by the previous owner and I'd like to replace it with a fresh one. Thanks.

Try Springfield Sporters, the Collector Source or The Amherst Depot.

None of these sights carries the screw only. Any other ideas?????

You can try Numrich.... (Item 55A)

Numrich Gun Parts Corp. - The World's Largest Supplier of Firearms Parts and Accessories

You will probably end up with a repro screw though.

Or you could go all out and get the whole thing as a repro from Sarco....

You might want to try Bill Ricca. He doesn't have them listed seperate, because as you know, they were part of an assembly. But it would be worth shooting him an email. His parts are USGI.

Thanks, but not looking for a reproduction. Tried Numrich already, got a reproduction.

Any 1903a3 guys out that can part with a swivel band screw?

Thanks Mike, tried Bill already. He only has assemblies, and they are not Remington marked in any event.

How about DeChristopher, only problem his minimum order is $25.00 plus $9.00 minimum shipping!

Another possibility. To tell you the truth I would swallow hard and just buy the complete asssembly. Originals are getting harder to find.
