MINI CQC15 pocket clip issue

[nashapple]

I bought a used mini CQC15 which has an issue with the pocket clip. The three screws keep loosening and one of them won't thread at all. I have tried using blue loctite to no avail. Any ideas?

Send it into Emerson, they'll take care of it. No reason not to.

I tried replacing the stock clip with a low profile clip and found that some of the clip screws on one knife were actually a little short. If memory serves, the ones that worked were .190" long. You might see if you can find some 2-56 screws locally and cut them down to the right length. Then use blue loctite.

I would but the previous owner took a dremel to the g10 to customize it.

That may work - do you think these would be the right size?

You can get the screws direct from Emerson for like $3.

I'd probably go through Emerson as suggested. I saw a chart somewhere the other day that showed the screw size for Emerson knives and most of them use .190" long screws for the pocket clips. The 3/16" will probably work with the stock clip, but I don't know for sure. I know 3/16" is too short for some aftermarket clips. Sorry I can't be more definitive.

I think the problem is on the g10 side rather than the screw side.
