Hi guys,
When I'm tapping holes in my lock or trigger plate I like to tap the hole through the stock of the gun so I'm positive things will thread in easily. The issue is that the normal 2 1/2 inch long taper tap is a tad short to do this easily.
Does anybody have a source for good 8-32 and 10-32 taps that are 3 or 4 inches long? I checked Grainger and they have 6 inch long taps at $50 apiece! :shocked2:
Thanks.
