Lost upper sideplate screw

[henry-ctc]

Hi guys.
I´ve just realized that the upper screw of my Llama Comanche sideplate is lost. It´s a .357 but I only shoot 38 ammo.
I´d like to go to the range tomorrow and my question is... Is it safe to shoot it without that screw?. I think the two remaining screws hold the sideplate firmly but I´d like to hear your opinions.

I doubt there will be any problem. You can always check the sideplate every reload and stop if anything seems loose. I don't know where you can get a replacement screw, though, as Llama is long gone, and I don't know of anyone who has parts for that gun.

Thanks Jim. I´m going to be careful.
