number 8-40x1/4 socket head screws

I have been looking everywhere including Brownells for these screws.8-40x1/4 for a remmy with Davidson bases. they got to be 1/4 inch.Will purchase them from whoever can part with two of them.Thanks
 
e- mailed Sinclair and they are getting the screws shipped out to me. I found many places that had the 8-36x1/4 but the 40's are all but non existent from the fastener suppliers.Thanks for your help fella's.
 
16, 20, 40, 48, 64, 80, 88, 100, 120, and 128 threads per inch threads are common with guns because the length can be calculated precisely by known pitch, thread count and position in the rotation. There is a method to some gun makers madness IE: John Browning for example . Most gunsmiths end up with taps and dies for most of the common gun screw threads. I often have to make custom screws for restorations. Most fastener venders can special order custom screw threads, diameters and lengths. Boxes of a 100 usually are minimum orders. Remember to order them long and cut them off as needed. Brownells, e-gunparts,Numric Arms) and MidwayUSA, Sinclair stock many common screw sizes. Widell Industries can make you taps and dies for any size screws and will do it in a matter of weeks.
