Title: Benjamin 342 bolt lock cam screws
Post by: Habanero69er on October 09, 2013, 08:38:13 PM
I've got a 342 that I'd like to replace the bolt lock cam screws (part #3485). The slots on the screw heads are boogered up. Anyone know the size & or where I can find replacements for them?

They come up pretty often on eBay. I just checked and the only ones available are for the 397; not sure if those will work. I'll hit you back if I come across a set. John

OK, I give. Where on that site are replacement parts? I see they advertise "Obsolete and new parts for most American made airguns", but I see everything else but that.

Do it the old fashioned way and call them; have a personal interaction and be well, tk

Yep, it woulbe probably be best to call them,; the Benjamin part number is 3485.

Here is a link to an exploded diagram of your gun:

Gave them a call this morning & ordered them the old fashioned way as tomkay suggested. $3.00 something for the screws, $6.00 & change for the freight. Said they'd go out today at noon. Quick & easy, friendly to deal with. Thanks for the help guys.  ;D
