ACS Allen Screw STRIPPED
OK, in my effort to disable the ACS mechanism in the bolt, I took my black allen L-shaped wrench that came with the gun, and tried turning the screw and now the sided slots of the screw (where you slot the allen wrench into) are stripped because I tried turning the screw, and I guess since it has blue loctite in it (supposedly), it was too much force and now it's stripped and ruined.
This is really a inconvienience for me. What do you guys suggest doing? I'm thinking about contacting Kingman for a new bolt, since I don't there think is much else I can do really.

Re: ACS Allen Screw STRIPPED
Put the screw back in and Loctite it. Or put the screw back in with a little bit of two-part epoxy on it. You wont be able to get it back out again if you use the epoxy, but it's better than havong no bolt at all.

Re: ACS Allen Screw STRIPPED
The screw is still in there Eric. I mean't the head of the screw is stripped, so I can't get my allen wrench to grip onto it to move it any.

Re: ACS Allen Screw STRIPPED
I absolutely hate those kind of screws. I strip them every time!
Is the screw out a little bit from the bolt so that you might be able to cut a slot in it for a flathead (standard) screwdriver?

Re: ACS Allen Screw STRIPPED
JB weld a spare bit of metal to the head of the screw and then screw it off, but don't do that until you have no hope left.

Re: ACS Allen Screw STRIPPED
Yup - I was going to suggest supergluing an allen wrench into the hole - but jb weld might work better.

Re: ACS Allen Screw STRIPPED
I tried loosening that bolt once to clean it and it seemed like it would strip if I kept going. I left it alone. Kingman should use a better quality metel on thos tiny bolts so they don't strip so easy.
