Century Arms PW87 Parts

I have a Century Arms PW87 and somewhere along the line the cartridge guide screw has fallen out. I called CA to get a replacement and they are out of stock. They directed me to http://www.homesteadparts.com/ and advised that the cartridge guide screw from the 1886 Winchester was the same thing.

Long story short, it's not.

I've spent hours trying to track the proper part down and have had ZERO luck, so I am turning to the experts.

I was able to remove another screw from a different location and it fits properly. I have attached some pictures of it for reference. According to the manual for the PW87 I am looking for part number 13 (cartridge guide screw), but the screw that will work as a replacement is part number 16(cartridge guide screw stop).

Can anyone please help me track this down? This has been one of my favorite guns to shoot and without it I just have an expensive paperweight.

Yes I do.

Fat finger typo for the win.

I went ahead and ordered it (part 19)

I figured for $10 after shipping what's it matter if I'm wrong
