The screw holds the ejector stop plate in place. Be VERY careful about screwing around (sorry) with this screw - a very seldom-heeded admonition with Parker ejector guns is to either use snap caps or hold your hand (thumb or finger) against the ejector as you open the gun after snapping the hammers down to give the ejectors some resistance against the very strong spring force as they are tripped. Failure to do this over time is the # 1 cause of the screw stripping out, resulting in the stop plate "blowing out", allowing the plate and one or both ejectors to sail off into the blue! Losing the stop plate, or one or both ejectors immediately results in a "deep kimchee" situation which takes forever to rectify and costs nearly as much as a new pedigreed bird dog puppy. So far as the ill fit on the Galazan set, you have 2 options: 1) learn to live with it (you'll never succeed in ignoring it), and 2) have a completely new doll's head rib extension made up, soldered and screwed in place, reblued (along with the barrels), and re-engraved. With Monty Hall having recently left the planet, I don't know of a viable "Door #3".
