I have an old S&W .38spl Mod 36 j-frame 2 1/2in bbl acquired in the early 1970's. After a 40 year "torture test" including over-charged reloads from before I knew better, this old friend is in need of a yoke assembly screw.
I have ordered several screws from schematics and all have been over-sized. I have been told by gun techs from mail order company that the yoke screws they have for S&W mod 36 j-frames measure 0.19" at the head. The one I have on this piece measures 0.17".
I'm now planning on keeping one that is .190" and trying to take it down to .170" and hope the threads fit.
Any suggestions?
