I was wondering if anybody knew a online place where I can order the screws that go through the bottle adapter and into the gripframe? Cause the airgun stores doesn't have them. Its a stupid question but can't find these things anywhere.

I got a bunch at Home Depot- they have all different lengths. Just bring them your grip or a screw and they can hook you up.

Basically any hardware store can sell you the screw you need. Sometimes the local place will not have enough selection to find the right one, so you will be better off going to Home Depot or somewhere like that.

Do not go to Ace Hardware, the one I went to did not stock the right screw. They only had a screw that was too long and one that was to short.

10-32 button head - with the 1/8 inch Alen Key.

What ever length you need depends on some stuff. But most common is 1/2 inch to 3/4.

I need longer than average ones. The stock ones won't go thru my KAPP stubby and then the warp plate. Any ideas on length?

Prolly one inch and one time I had to use some 1 and 1/4 ones. I have been known to cut one off if need be. With my Dremel and a nut on it to clean the threads off by taking the nut off after the cut. Works pretty well...

I hate cutting stuff, I don't have a demmel. Oh, this would be for my Emag, should I worry about the board?

No it just will not go but so far into there and bottom out. And if it bottoms out before its tight its no good. Its not like the old hollow mag grips where you had a lot of room and could get by with an over long bolt. Now it has to be short enough or it will not work. And that totaly depends on how thick the thing is your trying to attach.

Best thing to do is to find a hardware store that has these in numerous lengths. And buy two or more of each length. Then you have a Stash of them. I recommend you buy like four or five of each length so you have spares and such and build yourself up a nice tool box worth of 10-32 cause that is a real standard much used bolt in paintball. Good to have! And you can do this for less than five bucks.
