Anaconda Sight Screw

Revolver lover · 10-27-2017, 08:00 PM

Hello Group.

I bought an Anaconda that had a scope mount on it. I removed the mount in order to put a rear sight on and found the mount had so much thread loc had been used on the screws that the hole for the sight screw is not usable. I have tried to clean it out with a pick but it hasn't worked. I need the screw size and thread pitch so I can get a die to run through it so it will be usable.

Thanks to anyone that can help me.
Steve

I bumped your post on the Colt Forum up.

I've long forgotten the thread size, hopefully on the site will remember.

I still can't remember the thread size.

If Colt won't tell you, contact Frank Glenn and ask him:
