BigRiverLeather Report post Posted July 19, 2009 Where can I buy the parts for holster tension scres. I'm guessing it just screws into a T post, and I can use a button head cap screw, but what about the other parts? It looks like I might be able to just use a rubber grommet, but what do I use to screw the screw through? It almost looks like a snap post, but not quite.

BOOMSTICKHolsters Report post Posted July 19, 2009 I like an 8x32 flat head cap screw seated in a finishing washer, coupled with an 8x32 T-nut. I like to use fuel line as a compression washer. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BigRiverLeather Report post Posted July 19, 2009 Perfect. So simple, but it's nice to be pointed in the right direction. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
woolfe Report post Posted July 19, 2009 (edited) Mine are basically the same. Except I use 6-32 and I will trim the t-nut down clean the edges and put it in a counter sunk washer. Edited July 19, 2009 by woolfe Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Shorts Report post Posted July 19, 2009 I like an 8x32 flat head cap screw seated in a finishing washer, coupled with an 8x32 T-nut. I like to use fuel line as a compression washer. I use this method as well, probably because it was here I was pointed in the right direction on how to go about tension screws Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
STPENNER Report post Posted August 17, 2009 That's just what I've been looking for, but where do you get the black oxide hardware. The stainless stuff is easy to find, but I'm not having any luck finding the black oxide stuff. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
