Your local ACE hardware should have them, if not mine does. I will go get them and ship them to you.
 
^^^they do? i didnt get any from the hobby shop so i'll have to run to ace tommorrow.
 
Youd be surprised what ace or other hardware stores have! I've learned to go cheap RC by buying the exact same peices (usually in bulk) for less than what your going to pay at the LHS for one. If they dont have that screw I would honestly be surprised.
 
We have a true value hardware store near me that has a very good selection of hardware starting at 3mm. Forget the big places like loews or home depot, they are useless for tiny hardware, especially metric hardware
 
the only thing there good for is body pins, LOTS of body pins. those damn little things are the bane of my RC existence
 
I get most of my hardware from Ace, They have metric in stainless too. All the hardware on my Berg is S.S.:D
 
I buy all of my stuff in bulk from Fastenal or another industrial fastener supply store thats local. Fastenal will set up an account for you, give you a huge catalog with more stuff than you can imagine, and even deliver if you have an account set up.

The hobby shop wanted 3.99 for 8 stainless locking nuts, and I went to Fastenal and bought 100 of them for under $5 with tax. Same with 3x14 set screws, they wanted more than 5 bucks for them for a dozen at the LHS, and I bought 100 of them for around $9.
