Re: Removing stripped allen bolts from handgrips
Yes, but it will involve a bit of finesse.
First, get a drill bit that is the same size as the OD of the threads holding the grip on ( use the other screw as a guage). A little larger is OK, but not too much.
Secure the pistol ( unloaded etc ) on a sandbag or leather rest, something firm, that won't mar your treasure. Enlist a friend or a large child to hold the pistol while you drill the head ( only ) of the offending screw. Just as you drill thru the head, it should peel off the shank ( the threaded part of the screw ) allowing you to remove the grip. Grasp the part of the screw still remaining with your favorite Cajun wrench ( small visegrips for the rest of the world) and run it out.
Problem solved, with a hand drill, bag and pliers.
If you can find a LH twist bit, or push a screw extractor into the head that would also work. I've also driven a Torx bit into the head of a stubborn Allen head, and removed it that way.
