cool idea, but......!

I had a bad experience with this screw. I should have taken heed to previous reviews. It WILL NOT fit. The outer thread diameter is too wide. I will not resort to forcing this thing into my prized reciever with channel locks or vice grips. Still waiting patiently for that refund. Sorry, but you asked for my feedback.

Wrong size thread for Marlin 336

Wrong size thread This screw may not fit your 336. It didn't fit mine when it arrived at my place two days ago. It is the wrong size thread, and is an issue that these screws from Brownells have had for more than a few years now. If you force the screw you can damage the threads in your rifle. Search the product name online and you'll see it's a recognised problem, and better screws can be had elsewhere.

Got screwed!

Very poor quality manufacture. Starting thread is not correct. Flat headed end for threading. OEM's utilize a slightly pointed starting end for ease of starting into female thread. These threads are oversized and stretched the original hole size as the original screw now has a loose fit. It originally was slightly snug. Starting threads are too thick due to the flat end on this screw. I would expect this quality from China, but not Brownell. Will not waste time in making purchases here again. Firearms deserve quality parts and this is far from that.

Buyers Beware

Even though the SPECs claim that it will fit a Marlin 1894, it wasn't even close. It cost me almost as much in shipping it both ways as to just keeping the worthless screw.
