Rossi Overland Sidelpate Screw

[dfletcher]

Does anyone know the thread/screw size of the sideplate screw for the Rossi Overland shotgun - item #54 on the Numrich schematic:

An 8x32 almost fits, almost holds but I can tell - put the right amount of torque on it and the screw thread will slip.

It may be metric. Be careful not to mess the threads up.

Just a guess...

4.5mm x 0.8 pitch

That would be .010" larger diameter and the pitch would be nearly exactly the same.

Duplicate post...

If a matching one is on the other side it could be removed and measured.
