I have a Miroku (Winchester) M94 rifle with a dang saddle ring on the side of it. After two years of fussing with that stupid ring to keep it out of my way (I am a southpaw) while hunting, I have decided to remove the useless saddle ring and am trying to find a plug screw that will fit the hole.
I have found a few plug screws online but can not verify if the new Miroku rifles use a 8x36 pitch in that hole. Miroku is impossible to get hold of to answer the question. I am assuming that Miroku will use the same thread specs as the Winchester made rifles of yesteryear. Assuming of course, is not a good habit.
Does anyone on this site know for sure if Miroku uses the same threads as before or have they gone to metric?
With rifle in hand, I confidently go forth into the darkness.
