Motor grip-to-gearbox attachment screws?
 
Hi guys,

The screws in one of my (G&G) M4s that attach the grip to the gearbox are beginning to get a little slippy/raw. Only two were ever included in the first place, and so I'd like to have some replacements on hand.

Anyone know what the exact spec of this screw is?

Thanks

same as the ones holding your computer tower together.

its an M3 size screw. one from an old floppy drive or CD drive will fit perfectly. I had a box of various computer screws lying around so it wasn't a huge issue.
(it took me a bit of google-fu to find the answer as well)

Wow, thanks guys!

I tossed out the last of my computer towers (gave my parents a watercooled PC, even taught my dad how to refill the cooling system) a few years ago in favour of notebooks... but I just did some digging around and one thing that *didn't* get touched by a few spring cleanings was a small box full of screws and connector cables, and sure enough, some M3s. I knew this stuff would come in handy some day...

Cheers

FWIW, Polar Star guns use M3, .5 thread pitch, x 8mm. Don't know if that's the standard, but it's somewhere to start.

Since we are on topic, Anyone knows what kind of screws are the ones holding an Ak motor cage to the gearbox ?

M3 x 20mm

Nearly all Screws on a Gearbox are M3. (metric). You can find them on ebay.
