I accidentally screwed the wrong screw in to the bottom of a P-Rod tube and striped it out. (Too much on my mind at the time). How would I fix it?

It's the screw hole for the stud/lug (Disco) to mount the stock screw too.

Part 22  / 2260-12 / Lug, Stock

Disco EVP

Do they make and coil insert? Thanks

Thanks Mike, that's what I was thinking too.
Hope I don't have to weld it up, re-drill and tap it.
Might be easier just to order a new tube.  :-*

Walt, if you don't have a thread gage, just go to the hardware store and marry it up with a labeled size nut, my guess is 8-32 thread?

Here's a link to McMaster carr for helicoils and info  http://www.mcmaster.com/#helicoils/=j6dnxg

@Brian, Thanks.

I do have a thread gauge, but I have never used Helicoils. I don't have any install tools for Helicoils either.
I hope I can buy one and the tool for that particular Helicoil....?  ???

I'm a tinkerer, not a machinist. Any additional install info is appreciated  :-*

I have a p rod tube that i took off as soon as i got my gun. Never even had a shot thru it.

If u want it, its your shipped for $25. I think thats a fair price...might be low, might be high...i dont know.
