Thanks Jim, the hacksaw blade trick is a good one. I have restored several old pieces over the years doing the metal prep. and woodwork myself. I have always had my local Smithy recut the boogered screws which is so common on old guns. I have ordered obsolete screws in the past only to recieve screws that were the same or in worse condition than the ones I wanted to replace. Thanks all for the good information.
