Just because something is legal to do doesn't mean it is the smart thing to do.
| Might have loctite on threads, try a hot soldering tip on the screw head for a few seconds to heat it up.
Integrity is doing the right thing, even when nobody is looking.

| You say you’ve tried everything but just confirming: have you tried a butane torch on the screw heads until you see smoke? Followed by a fresh bit installed in an impact driver?

| 1KPerDay, great idea. And I guess I have not tried everything. I'll get on it. Again, thanks |

Sometimes an allen wrench will turn them but most of the time all it does it mess them up. If you didn't notice that get a Torx in the correct size. I recently obtained a new 365 with an optic plate from the factory. After reading your trouble, I checked mine and they came right out, very easy.
I learned this the hard way on one of my pistols. Finally got out after realizing I had to purchase the correct head set, then the screws had to go into the trash after getting out. |
