whats the issue!? are they cross threaded or rounded or what?

 

[Stewpot]

totally rounded they are now just a large hole in the screwhead

cheers for that, i am in desperate need of getting this fixed, i have tried super gluing an allen key the the screws and leaving it to dry and then using it as a sacrificial key, but it wont hold and i am out of allen keys now


the only other thing is using a drill, but i dont know how far to drill on thee screws.

cheers

it has now got a pen spring to make the trigger go back (which is the reason why i need to remove the frame) so it can still be used slightly.

Use a saw then a flat head screw driver?

Use a saw then a flat head screw driver?

would do, but they had the ingenious idea to have the screws set into the frame so no part of it is sticking out (blackout screws i think they are called)

would have done that otherwise

oo unlucky, have fun

You could try using a hammer and a centre punch if you have enough screwhead to get one in there.

Socket head screws are a right bugger when they round
