I accidently knocked around my sideplate screws for my 66-1. After cleaning out the internals and putting the sideplate on I think I may have the front screw and the one behind the trigger guard reversed.

They look the same outside of the gun. Laying on the table I can't tell the difference between the two. However, the front screw seems seated too deep and the screw behind the trigger guard seems raised.

I am not sure. Opinions?
