    M24/47 lock screws

    I've been unable to find the lock screws/capture screws, and the rear sight screw, necessary to complete an M24/47 project.
    Does anyone know if any other model of Mauser screws are interchangable with the of the M24 and M24/47s?
    Searches make it clear that 98 screws are not interchangeable, but I wonder if M48 screws will work.
    Any suggestions or information will be greatly appreciated.
    Thank you,

    You need M24 capture screws or 6.35mmx22TPI. I believe also used on 1867/69 Belgian Mauser. Britishicon 1/4"x20TPI may work.

    Try the guys over at K98kforum.com they likely won't have Yugoicon screws but they may have the Belgian Screws.

    I only recently, very recently, found the answer to what those small action screw locking screws are and it's neither metric or inch standard. Other Mauser screws generally will not work in their place though there are exceptions. Though, I imagine the Belgian screws would work (as suggested by others) should work since the Yugoslav model 1924 was a Belgian design.

    To the best of my knowledge, no correct screws are currently being manufactured. I am looking into getting some made and making them available in the near future.
