... It's the stupid little screw that holds the gas thingy to the main barrel. Anyone know where I can get another one? My M14 is now gaffer taped together!

It's the tiny little allen-headed screw that secures the bit circled. Screw goes right in at the top, is tiny and b*gger to find when you drop it...-- attachment is not available --

Is it a screw (with a head) or a grub screw (without a head)? What size is the hole it goes in? I might have a grub screw that'll do the job :)

It's a grub screw. If B&Q can't deliver, I'll have to use a very small elec screw

I've got one, brand new, sat here, doing nothing. It's black and the size used to retain the stock hinge pin in a G36. M3 (3mm metric thread) and it's 5mm long. Takes a 1.5mm allen key. PM me an address and I'll post it to you, free gratis :)
