[QUOTE="aviator41, post: 2731113, member: 30309"] Dennis, this screw is not supported at all inside. It spans the inside of the reciever and holds the two side plates in the opening. I've managed to get a buggered side-plate screw out of an Uberti 73, but it took a full set of Brownells screwdriver bits to get one that fit the now oversized slot. you could also very carefully drill the head off the screw, freeing the two side plates, then you could remove the side plates with the rest of the screw still in the right plate, grab the shank of the screw with a set of vise-grips and get it out. since you're replacing the screw anyway.
