Hey everyone! Just curious if anyone could tell me the dimensions of the retention screws in Ultrasabers, specifically the Prophecy V3? I've been thinking about getting a new set of screws for the emitter to make my saber feel more "me." I also was curious if anyone knows whether or not the Bunny Ears screws from TCSS are compatible with the Prophecy/other Sabers? Thanks!

The screw size is 8/32 it needs a #29 drill bit. On a side note we try not to use spisific names of ultrasabers competitors.
As for the bunny ears they use a different size screw to mount them but I don't see why you couldn't add them to the prophacy. You just wouldn't be able to use the blade retention screws.

I used their bunny ears. Note, the one I got had two screw holes not one like the US Graflex bunny ear, which only has one hole. I used one 8-32 flat screw, I had to bore out the bunny ear hole to fit it. Then used liquid nail to attach the piece to strengthen the connection. Works great and is very solid and was still able to use the a 8-32 retention screw. Pics below of my custom Prophecy with bunny ears.

Hey good job with that. I figured you'd have to make the hole to make it fit right. But it shows it can be done.

Try asking Deep (Emory) if you could custom order the Graflex ears. The you could just us a 8-32 screw (socket or button head) on your saber.

And if I remember correctly, the other guys' bunny ears are meant to use a 4-42 size screw. Rather inconvenient.

If they are seporate price then it is potable to order them all you would have to do is ask. INFO@ULTRASABERS.COM  and they will give you a price I did that for a n activation box and it was 1/2 the price of the other guys.
