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...

:-[My bad...When you said breech screw ???
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. :-*

Mine are 8-32 x 3/4" and just like AS13 I get from Mcmaster - I got stainless steel:

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