P226 Sport barrel weight screws Login/Join

I'm new to this forum so please bear with me. I recently came into possession of a P226 Sport model. I soon learned that the barrel weight has to be removed for field-stripping and cleaning. Eventually the three torque head screws will wear out. Since Sigarms doesn't carry spare parts for these now defunct pistols, does anyone know of a good source for these screws? Thanks in advance for any helpful suggestions.

Don't bother replacing them unless they are lost or junk. You're not going to wear them out by intended use and frequency.

A Torx drive fastener is designed to never wear out.

The drive angles were optimized decades ago so that forces are well-directed.
