The Weaver #2 Base comes with screws and is often very cheap (brand new) on ebay.

The mount with rings, that 'clamps' to the #2 base, is harder to find and sells new for about $30 to $45.

Brass gun screws just don't look right to me.

Repro Krag and 1903 swivel-screws can be found on ebay and S&S Firearms. Shortening the screw and 'reducing' shaft diameter (above threads) makes a serviceable replacement for the Redfield 102-K and 70-K sights.

(IMHO - The Redfield 70 KT - 'target' and 70 KH - 'hunter' are nice looking sights, but, the 'micrometer adjustment' makes them cumbersome for gun cleaning, because there is no quick-release. It is easiest to simply remove the whole sight in order to remove the bolt).
