stripped thread

The bottom limb has parted company with my Axis, (limb bolt threads stripped in the riser) B******.
Anyway on close inspection the threads in the other pocket are also showing signs of wear so I thought I'd get both fitted with a helicoil, anyone happen to know anyone around Leicester who could do the job?

Unfortunatley I don't know anyone who could do it.
But I was disapointed when I realised what your thread was really about, lol.

Well sort of, got someone to do the job but we're having a bit of trouble getting the right size helicoil, it's imperial 5/16" unc, (I think) but thanks for the offer.

Hi
Had the same problem: needed a helicoil in my toxonics sight, and overhere in the Netherlands everything is metric.. no chance.
Until someone pointed me to a Harley Davidson garage: no problem for them, they even did it for free...

Even offered me a "strong cup of tea": that turned out to be a mug with 1/4 tea and 3/4 rum... LOL
