Looks like I managed to put my TOZ 35M grip screws in a “safe place”! Until I find them, are they a regular metric type screw?? Thanks!!!

Yes. 3 mm.

They're a pretty fine thread pitch though. The tap in my Craftsman set is 3mm x .6 and that's definitely not the right pitch. Maybe a .5

Thanks for the reply’s!!! I will see if the local hardware has them. The Morini grips pretty much encapsulate the frame but there is a slight movement. Preparing for a match and my old TOZ seems to be performing better than my Morini 80 and Morini 84....now where did I stash that old Pardini?? I need better organization...lol

Hardware stores like Tacoma Screw Products or Grainger or Fastenall have them. The trick is to buy a set of long screws and a die. The TOZ has absolutely no respect for normall lengths on screws. They are all in between lengths and you need to cut to the correct length and run a die over the trimmed ends after you file them to the right length........ Also, buy HARDENED washers and they dont gall.
