  • Would work great if I didnt mess up the application.
Was what I ordered, and it fit, but was wrong application. But will still use them on something else.

  • Useful, high quality plug screw kit
I picked up this set of plug screws to address a common problem; screw holes from removing a scope rail or sight. You can simply put the screw that secured the item back in, but it isn't very practical or sightly to have fastener heads sticking up and if the hole was empty to begin with you're out of luck. This kit from Monstrum nicely addresses these issues. Both sizes of screws (6-48 and 8-40) come with a black oxide finish, seem to be well hardened and a very nice touch that many don't have is the inclusion of blue thread locker on each one. They have a hex/socket drive, which is better IMO than many of these that have a small slot. That might not seem like a big deal at first, but when you are trying to remove one that has been in place for a number of years you will appreciate not having to try to break them loose with a tiny slotted screwdriver. There are 2 reasons I gave this kit four stars instead of five; 1) one of the 6-48 screws was missing (only 9 in kit) and 2) I feel that the price of this kit is a bit high for the number of screws included. Outside of those two factors, this kit is great and very useful. The screws themselves are of high quality I have come to expect from Monstrom. ... show more

  • Complete trash
I bought these for my Marlin 1895. They fit so loosely that I’m afraid they will fall out. They literally wobble in the holes. They are also too short.

  • Reliable gun plug set screw kit that solves a hard-to-find gunsmithing need.
I picked up this Monstrum gun plug #6-48 and #8-40 screw set after running into an annoying problem with a scope rail installation on my old Mosberg shotgun. I needed to plug a few pre-drilled holes in the receiver to prevent any dust and dirt getting inside of the receiver, and I quickly realized that #6-48 set screws aren’t something you can just grab at a local hardware store. After some searching, I found this kit and decided it was worth keeping on hand, not just to finish my repair but also as a backup for future gunsmithing projects. The set comes neatly organized with 10 set screws of each type - #6-48 and #8-40. The screws are 1/8-inch in length - allowing for installation flush with the top of the receiver with the proper penetration depth. They’re made from hardened stainless steel, which is more durable than some softer aftermarket screws I’ve handled in the past. They use hex sockets for fastening and the matching hex wrench is included, making it a complete kit right out of the box. Using the screws was straightforward. The threads are clean and precise, so they went into my receiver without any binding or misalignment. They are also pre-treated with a blue threadlocker, so no worries about loosening them due to recoil. I torqued them down to the recommended 15 inch-pounds, and they seated perfectly flush. The finish on the set screws looks professional and matches most black rifle components, which keeps the overall look of the rifle clean. After using them, it’s clear these are not cheap, generic set screws - they’re properly hardened and built for abuse. I wish the kit came with slightly more variety in lengths or maybe a couple of extra screws per size as spares. Still, the overall value of finally having the right hardware when you need it. In the end, this screw kit turned out to be a solid investment. It solved my immediate problem, saved me from hunting down obscure screws, and now sits in my toolbox ready for the next time I need a reliable #6-48 or #8-40 plug. For anyone who works on firearms or even just owns a rifle that uses this uncommon threading, it’s an inexpensive way to avoid headaches down the road. Bottom line: This Monstrum #6-48 and #8-40 gunsmithing set screw pack is a handy, well-made kit for firearm repairs, especially plugging extra holes in the receiver. It includes durable hardened stainless-steel set screws in #6-48 and #8-40 thread sizes, plus a hex wrench. The screws fit cleanly, pretreated with a blue threadlocker, torque down flush, and have a professional finish. While more length variety or spare screws would be nice, it’s a reliable, affordable solution for anyone needing these uncommon threads. Solid 5-star product in my book, highly recommended! Pros: 1. Durable hardened stainless-steel construction. 2. Includes #6-48 and #8-40 thread sizes for flexibility. 3. Clean precise threads for easy installation. 4. Professional black finish matches most rifles. 5. Comes with a matching hex wrench. 6. Pretreated with a blue threadlocker. 7. Solves the problem of hard-to-find #6-48 and #8-40 screws. Cons: 1. Limited variety of screw lengths. 2. No extra spare screws included. ... show more
