ebay? These look good and they are much cheaper ($21.70 shipped) than the $70-$100 originals sold by Dupage.

Well gents . . . .It’s finally happened! . . . .

The $100 single-slot lock screw as sold by Dupage now costs MORE than what I paid for my first TWO complete M1 rifles! ($80 and $98)

early single slot screws

Here are variations of the early single slot screws - all in photos are original. Some appear
to be DuLite color which might indicate Winchester. The bevel on the bottom threads was
started in July 1941.

Most repros will accept a M5 bayonet stud.dscn0977.jpgdscn0980.jpgdscn0979.jpg
