[QUOTE="Hand Skills, post: 1895410, member: 103303"] Sorry for the confusion guys. I was speaking to the general properties of aluminum as [USER=93138]@ntsqd[/USER] surmised. I've never stripped a screw or a thread in a HARDENED steel receiver, that's hard to imagine. Might be possible with a cheap fastener but I'd bet the head would shear off before the threads failed in that situation... [/QUOTE]
