    OK thanks guys. Just ordered the screws off of Numrich.
    $9 for two screws, I only needed one but got to buy two.
    That seems high but what are you gonna do, go buy them at Lowes?

    I have had the damn gun but only fired twelve rounds of Colt cowboy loads through it with the conversion cylinder.

    Figured I would shoot some black powder in it but noticed this screw was missing.
    Weird considering I have hardly used it, it was NIB when I bought it, weird that that screw was missing.
    Anyway thanks for the help.

    Really it is surprising that they have any parts considering the gun hasn't been manufactured for 10 years. I noticed that many of the parts are not in stock. Gone With The Wind.

    There's a rumor going around that Ruger re-released the ROA.

    Example:

    Well I don't know about a re release, but there have always been plentiful on GB. I bought mine there and there were about 40 more for sale at the same time.

    Mine is beautiful, NIB.

    Except, for the purist, not so good. I removed the loading lever, and whacked 3 inches off the barrel with my sawzall. Handles better that way.
