Winchester Model 94 tang screw thread pitch

Post by zoner »

Does anybody know what size machine screw and thread pitch Winchester used for tang screws on a mid-1940's Model 94 carbine? so far I know it's not 10/32 and it's not 1/4-20 and seriously doubt it's metric.

I should have been more clear......I need diameter and thread pitch for the front screw not the rear one that goes all the way thru to the lower tang. The front screw is smaller in diameter and only about 1/4" long

Tons of originals on ebay 1894 and 1892 are same. Some of the aftermarket are not correct. Make sure it's correct.
