Break off a lock screw trying to install it one time and and you'll (hopefully) never do it again. It's easy to do. These little bastards get cross threaded, or if the head hangs up on the action screw or edge you can torque it off, easily, leaving the headless screw in your lock screw hole. The solution is to STOP when you hit resistance. Nothing should be forced. Clean out the screw hole with a brush, q-tip (don't leave fluff in there), ballistol / clp, and clean again. If the lock screw still won't go in, on its own, with the correct angle, chase the threads with this. It's cheap. Go slow, clean out the shavings, preferably with compressed air:
Remember, remove the triggerguard and all screws but the one you are working on. MAKE SURE YOUR ANGLE IS CORRECT, GO SLOW, DON'T FORCE ANYTHING. Also, the early notched lock screw is supposed to stay in the triggerguard, turned to "open" so that the action screw can be removed. Don't ask me how I learned this lesson long ago.
