Title: Screw Size Benefits Post by: TheCharlax on February 09, 2021, 04:39:55 AM Out of curiosity, was there any reasoning behind using 8/32 retention screws in the Ultrasabers? Obviously they get the job done, but would larger size retention screws provide more surface to hold the blade in place, or is there some unforeseen disadvantage to a larger screw size?
