Description
Anyone who has ever torn into a rifle or handgun knows the frustration of being one small screw short of finishing the job. This Forster Gun Screw Assortment fixes that. It packs 276 pieces total, a full dozen each of Forster's twenty-three most popular gun screw sizes, all sorted and boxed so you can put your hand on the right one without digging through a coffee can of mystery hardware.
What Sits Inside the Forster Screw Assortment
The kit covers the sizes that turn up most often on scope bases, trigger guards, grip caps, buttplates, and general repair work. You get Type A Fillister head, Type B Oval head, and headless plug screws across a spread of thread sizes and lengths, which is the mix that handles the bulk of everyday gunsmithing. The screws are heat-treated and blued except where noted, so they take stress and match the finish of most blued firearms instead of standing out like a shiny hardware-store part.
Why the GSA200 Earns Its Bench Space
Buying screws one at a time gets expensive fast, and you rarely find the odd size right when you need it. Grabbing the whole assortment costs noticeably less than sourcing all those screws individually, and it means the size you're after is already in the box. For a hobby gunsmith, a hunting-camp tinkerer, or a shop that wants backup on hand, that's the kind of quiet convenience you appreciate the moment a customer walks in with a stripped base screw.
Forster has been building gunsmithing tools since 1935, and this assortment carries that same no-nonsense reputation. Toss it in a bench drawer or a range bag and it turns those small, job-stopping shortages into a two-minute fix.

Frequently Asked Questions
What sizes come in the Forster Gun Screw Assortment?
The kit includes a dozen each of Forster's twenty-three most popular gun screw sizes, for 276 pieces total. That covers the common Type A Fillister head, Type B Oval head, and headless plug screws in the thread sizes and lengths you run into most on scope bases, trigger guards, and general repairs. Fillister and Oval lengths are measured from under the head.
Are the screws in the GSA200 blued to match a firearm finish?
Yes. The screws are heat-treated and blued except where indicated, so they hold up under stress and blend in with most blued firearms rather than looking like a raw hardware-store part. That finish is a big reason this assortment is aimed at gun work instead of generic fasteners.
Who is this gun screw assortment best suited for?
It's a great fit for hobby gunsmiths, hunters who like to handle their own repairs, and shops that want backup screws on hand. Having a dozen of each common size boxed and ready means you can finish a project without ordering one screw at a time. It also lands at a friendlier cost than buying all those sizes individually.
Will these screws work on my scope base or trigger guard?
The assortment is built around the sizes that show up most often on scope bases, trigger guards, buttplates, and similar hardware, so there's a strong chance the size you need is in the box. Since firearm screws use inch thread pitches like 6-48 or 8-40, match your existing screw's diameter and thread count to the right piece before installing. When in doubt, compare the old screw side by side.
