Hello! I have an old m98 that needs stripped and cleaned very badly. The only problem is, the screws on teh outside are stripped. The alan wrench just strips it more if I try to unscrew it. I was thinking of using a dremel to cut a stright line on top of the screw then use a flat head screw driver to remove it. Before i mess anything up, i wanted to see if anyone has any idea. thanks a lot |

Go to your local hardware store and buy a set of screwouts or drill out the screws, either way you will have to get new screws. Also, while your at it buy a high quality set of allen wrenches, it will save to time and hastle. Look http://www.tippmann.com/forum/wwf77a/forum_posts.asp?TID=153119&PN=1 - here for more help. And next time search before you post, this has been covered many times before. -------------
