Got a picture or any link?
September 2013 American Rifleman, page 44. Schuster's web site <schustermfg.com> does not picture the same screw pictured in the NRA article??? Maybe the same screw redesigned to allow tightening with a 1/4" socket wrench?
It doesn't look like a re-design to me at all for the Garand screw. Same I've been using.
They redesigned them a few years back with a locking ring. That may be what they are refering to
Bad call on my part. It looked different because the adjustment screw is backed all the way out, probably to show how it works.
Those are just like the adjustable gas plugs Clint Follower designed. He retired about three years ago so I'm sure they just picked up his design, as he used an adjuster screw and then a lock or jam screw.
