    Hello,

    I have a friend who just got replacement screws for his k80 fore end that holds the iron to the woo that screw into the rosettes my question for him is does anyone know if there's a certain Torq to put these at so not to overtighten and strip or break off screws or damage the foreend??

    Thanks!
    Marc

    ALSO CHECK THE WOOD TO METAL FIT. IF THERE IS A VERY SMALL GAP THE SCREWS WILL SHEER. EVEN IF YOU USE LOCK TITE ROGER C.
