Thanks, I ordered the Grace N2 today from Brownells. Took advantage of the free shipping.

Re: screwdrivers
i have a set of Winchester Gunsmithing Screw Drivers. They are hollow ground and correctly fit the slots in the heads by width and depth. I think I back in the day I paid 35 dollars. They are cheaper now. I have had them probably 6 years. I use them a lot!

Re: screwdrivers
Nearly 60 years old, have worked on bicycles, mowers, cars, trucks, boats, motorcycles, etc and have never come across the term "hollow ground point". Can someone educate this old dog?

Re: screwdrivers
The sides of the screwdriver bit at the business end are pretty much parallel. Regular screwdrivers are more wedge shaped in profile.

and because they are parallel, and match the slot, they contact more surface area................clovishound wrote:The sides of the screwdriver bit at the business end are pretty much parallel. Regular screwdrivers are more wedge shaped in profile.

Re: screwdrivers
At the advice of Bandit1250 on here. I picked up an inexpensive Winchester set at a gun show last year. Handle and bits. Only complaint is I should have bought 3 more sets.

Brownell's #080-360-650AS bit (.360 x.050) fits the receiver screws on my pump. Their #080-300-54AS (.300 x .040) fits the tang screw.

Re: screwdrivers
I have both the Grace sets (there are two), and also a very nice magnetic-tip set made by Brownells. There was one very small screw on -- I believe it was on the Henry sights -- that I needed to go to the smallest Grace. Firearm screws should be treated with respect -- never using a wrong blade, otherwise you are going to slip and scratch your gun or bugger up the screw. Money well spent.PMC wrote:These are the ones I use

Re: screwdrivers
I would not be the least surprised if one day very soon one may be able to purchase a swell 11pc set of tools for our Henry's from Grace USA on the Henry web site.
