Default Michael's Weekly Stupid Question

My stupid Question:

Ok.... if you own a 1911, one day you WILL lose or strip a grip screw. I believe that it's "a given." I would like to purchase (maybe) a box (100 pcs) each of Govt., Officer, standard and slim, SS and Blue screws and bushings.

Guess what? I can't find a manufacturer. There has GOT to be someone out there that Wilson, LB, DW, Colt, Sig, SA, STI, RIA, and all the others... are buying from. It just doesn't make sense for a company like Wilson to make their own (I worked on Screw Machines as a young man.)

The standard sizing is: Screw: .150-50 Dia/thread per inch. Bushing is a .236-60 OD, .150-50 ID

So... stupid question: Who actually produces these items? And can they be purchased in bulk?
