Gearbox screw won't come out!
 

ARHH!!!

I need help!

I just went out and bought a brand new set of alen key to try to get this screw out my gearbox!

The screw isn't strip, but it seems like it's getting there!

The 1/16" is too small, the 5/32" is too big!... I even have 2mm and 2.5mms, and even so, one is too big, and one is too small!...

What do I do?!..

sure its not a torx?

are they allen heads or star shaped (dont know the name) try a small flathead that fits in the corners

torx thats the name for star shaped :D

If you cannot get any torx or allen keys to work, take your dremel tool and cut a slot in it and use a slot screwdriver. Had to do that before myself

OH!!!... It is a torx... CRAP! What do I do? I don't have a set of those!...

as long as theres no pin in the center use a small flathead

ive NEVER used a torx bit for a torx screw :(

why the sad face you dont have to buy torx bits lol

Flat head won't work anymore... Sigh...

Thanks all for the help. Torx... Like really?!...

:/ And you offer to fix other people's guns?

Does he ever use the proper tool for the job? Or repair things properly?

i dont run into torx much, so i didnt buy a set, so sue me
i had to spend my money on shit like COLLEGE and FOOD

and you'll be glad to hear i fixed my WA para today with liberal use of electrical tape and super glue!

+1.... the more he posts about gundoc tips on this forum, the more I feel like never giving him a broken gun to repair... XD

(no offense, but please read your previous posts in the "Doctor's corner" )

... I'm in the same position as you with money being spent on food and college... but I'm able to afford the right tools because people pay me money to fix their stuff... because they know it's going to be fixed right and with the proper tools...
