All screws for drop fowards or the bottom of the grip frames are 10-32 to my knowledge, they only difference may be spyders.
So you want 10-32 screws, just buy a bunch and find what fits the best.I knew not what I did but am now edumacated -
Yes 10-32 machine screws. I bought a box of 100 of them at the hardware store for like $3
Props to echo419 for the sigComment

10-32 is correct for your standard grip frame. If your not confident with that, take your setup to the hardware store and fit everything right in the store....Comment

I agree - screw threads. lol.
J/K - that's right - #10x32. I think Spyders are 5mmx0.8."Did everything just taste purple for a second?" - Phillip J. Fry

They are the same as the front gripframe screw. YOu can take that to the store and use it to find more in the length and head style you need.
Of course, everyone is right, they are 10-32 so all you really need to do is pick the length and head style you want."Relax. Don't worry. Have a Home Brew."

BTW, most drops use countersunk heads, to prevent the head from protruding. If you use screws that aren't countersunk in a drop designed for them, it may not be as secure.Comment

Actually, they are 8-32 and the grip panel screws are 6-32. I have no idea why those are SAE while the gripframe to body screws are 5mm.I think Spyders are 5mmx0.8.
If your new drop isn't countersunk for screws, you might consider button heads for a fairly smooth finish.God gave you a soul.

wow
I havent been an registered here very long but i must say i am highly impressed with the AO forums and posters in general. all my questions were answered in a very timely fashion and the info given was bang-on. i managed to actually use my emag in speedball this evening against 2 angels (a speed and an ir3) and a DM4 with some electro-spyders thrown in and i was easily able to hang with them.
the funny thing is all these dudes were major tourney players and had never come across an reactive trigger before.
Thanx for all the info and advise peace outComment
