Hw97Kt Adjustable Recoil Pad Come Loose At Base

[Andy_c 210]

Has anyone else had this problem the Allen screw has worked loose and it will not tighten enough not amused!!!!!!

I don't want to sound insulting, but you have taken the pad off and tightened the two screws that hold it onto the wood? need to check just to make sure its not something simple

It is one of those that has come loose and will not tighten fully it's like it's chewed the wood out and the screw won't do u, the actual pad is fine it's the base the pad bolts too no insult taken that is why I put base

humm... could always put a blob of epoxy in the hole that would nip it up ... need something to fill the void that the screw has chewed out

 

if not maybe changing the screw for a different size thread would that help?

[Andy_c 210]

Yeah I need quite a big thread it's really course thanks for the help

mine came loose other week.. but it tightened back up fine.. ?! so don't know why yours has gone bad..?

[Andy_c 210]

I don't know the wood gone might try some sort of raw plug

Use a thicker screw or drill in and use a longer on or just do both to be sure

It's not an unfixable situation. The solution is here in the replies you have, Andy.
