Marred Screws on 16g VH
Hi all,
I just picked up a 16ga VH with a straight grip from 1911 for a pretty good price. All things considered, it’s in pretty nice condition for what I paid with good solid wood, original DHBP some remaining finish on the receiver and barrels, and perfect bores. However, someone had the gun apart in the past and marred up the screws on the left side of the receiver, and the front screw seems to be a replacement.
Were these screws fitted individually to the gun? Would new screws need to be made or is it possible to buy replacements from someone parting out another gun? I don’t need these to be perfect, but the front replacement screw bothers me especially.
