I have an original Badass that I would like to get replacements for.....I have contacted both Leo Quan and Allparts ( listed as Badass US distributor ) and not gotten a response.....

Does anyone know of sources for small screws like these ?

What you're looking for are some 4-40x1/4" set screws - any decent hardware distributer should carry them, and they won't cost much at all...

A quick Google popped this up:

4-40 x 1/4" Oval Point S/S Socket Set Screw | Fastenal

A Home Depot or Lowes probably carries them...

Well, I just got back from the local Fastenal distributor ( thanks again, georgestrings...)....
they didn't have them in stock, but they can order them for me.....unfortunately, it is a minimum order of 100 pieces !!!.....I only really need 2, was going to take 12 so I had an extra set +.....my search continues, will be at Lowes in a few days......

I might be listing 88 of them F/S if I have no luck at Lowes !

I keep telling people, hobby shops. Radio control hobbyists use this stuff regularly.
