- The product is intended to fill unused sight and scope mount holes, so it is a fitment-specific maintenance item rather than a universal accessory.
- Only the screw type and finish are specified here; other dimensions and installation details are not provided in the product data.
- The 12-pack format is practical for refills, but it may be more than needed for a single one-off application.
