[QUOTE="LoneTraveler, post: 1035166, member: 77249"] The threads in the receiver is one part, The screw is the other part. That makes the connection Whole. Is the screw in perfect condition or is its threads scrubbed off. If the screws threads are in bad shape or nearly gone you may have got some soft screws and its threads are stripped off in the receivers threads. Making it look like the receiver is stripped. If the screw is missing any threads, I would run a tap in the receiver holes, new screws and see if they will take torque to specs. then remove and check screws. If they are in good form it was soft screws with no receiver damage. [/QUOTE]
