Hello All:

Thanks for your varied advice.

Presently the screw heads and tips are being doused in Kroil for a few days. I then plan to shock the screw heads with a light hammer, and perhaps 100 rounds of targets.

And I may even heat the screws with a soldering iron, keeping a bucket of water nearby, should ignition occur!

I'm also going to order a replacement set of action screws in the event any snap or bugger. I really like the drill press approach, but not having a good press and cradle handy I'll leave that technique for a pro should I need to ship it away for service.

You guys are a great resource.

Regards,
GG
