Black slot faceplate (corner) mounting screw question

[Ricktptman]

I know some of them are 1/4" and some are 1/8" in length, the shorter to avoid hitting the panloc shaft, but are the threads for these screws 6-32? I thought I'd seen this thread here before but I can't find it through Ye Olde Google.

I'm seeing some 1911 grip screws on ePrey that look close, but I think those have odd thread specs.

If someone has a source for them, I'd really appreciate a heads up as to where to find them and what exactly the specs are. My 2255 was missing two when got it.

TIA...

I buy them in bags of 100 on a popular auction site. 6-32 x 1/4" Machine Screw, Phillips Pan Head, Black Oxide, Steel.

If I need a 1/8 I just grab the dremel and cut off a 1/4 to the right length--works every time.

Thanks VERY much, ddwiggins. I THOUGHT that they were 6-32 according to the schematics parts list, but there are no exploded views/disassembly sheets like there are in full-service manuals. The only thing is I need the SLOT head version that holds the faceplate to the chassis.
I already have bags of the 6-32 Phillips Head Machine screws. They're ubiquitous on my Sunfire, Carver, and vintage Pioneer Silver Era gear. I KNOW that this question's been discussed on AK before, I just can't find the thread. Thanks for being the BEST part of AK and welcome!
