1952 9A part question

evanthayer · Jul 5, 2020

I’ve got a partially disassembled 1952 9A that i am putting back together. I’ve identified every part I need and confirmed they are in my possession and in good condition. After identifying everything - there are (4) hex head 5/16-18 screws remaining. (2) are 1” long and (2) are 7/8” long. Which of these pairs is for the saddle rear gib, and what are the other (2) for?

Helpful Hint

I know it's a terrific PITA to take a screw out of an adjusted gib just to measure it. Perhaps one of you knows how to decode the SB part numbers for the gib fasteners? In the Department of the Army parts manual it lists the gib screw as #112x114 and the washer as #PT3400.

THANKS!
