Does anyone know the part number for the rear breech screw that goes in the steel breech (flat head on the back)?

If im not mistaken arent they a little shorter then the one that comes with the plastic breech? This is for a 1377 gun.

You can use a screw from your local hardware store.  It is 8-32 x 3/4 or 11/16, I forget which.  You just have to make sure that it does not protrude into the hammer spring.  If you get one that's a little too long you can grind it down a little. If you want to order one the part number is AS2250-015.

You might want to look into getting the flat head slot or Phillips screws from McMaster. Will save a lot of aggravation down the road...

Not a bad idea to get some replacements for the front 4-48 breech screw.  I got a bag of 100 in anticipation of  breaking a stock one and that finally happened to me last week.  I broke off a cheap tool right even with the top and had to drill the top off to get it out.  The screws I had were 4-48 x1/4" SS Phillips.  The tops are a little too wide - I chucked them into a drill reduced the size a little with a file, and they fit perfectly. :-*

I have used several 3/4" screws and I grind a few threads off as I check to make them flush with the inside of the rear plug so that they don't interfere with the hammer spring.  They come out to 11/16" (.685" ~.003).

I found all the screws I needed at local hardware stores except the 4-48.  I bought a 100 pack of them on Amazon.
