Yoke screw thread?

[eksund]

Can anyone tell me what the thread is on a yoke screw on a model 17?

Thank You in advance.

as long as it is the old style, before thw spring loaded plunger, it is 5x44m the same as sll the other sideplate screws.

More than likely it will need to be fit or it will be too tight. A 2 minute job.

You may have to adjust the length and possibly the tip diameter a bit for the yoke to open and close smoothly. A hardware store screw will differently need work on the tip to work correctly. Far better to start with a stock S&W side plate screw.
