Knick Forend Screws
Phil,
Is this the same Knick you shared last week, serial #4018..?
If it is, I believe the forend screw that you’re missing is the one I posted pictures of, a wood screw that is approximately 3/8” in length.
So after thinking about this some more, I was looking over a late NID and then decided to check a fairly late Knick, serial # 404…, At some point they moved away from a wood screw and switched to a machine screw while placing a small square piece of metal to serve as a nut. I would assume this was to solve the problem of the small wood screw loosening overtime
