Ace Hardware usually has a whole section of little bitty screws that work well.Buy a tiny allen head screw and put it in there. That way you can always take it back out later if you so desire.
Go to the hardware store and bring the removed screw with to find a match.
^^^^^This!Red loctite is some serious stuff. The blue will work for what you need.

I've done that and they didn't mind. It helps that I was out in the country at the time.Just take the gun, I'm sure they won't mind.
If you’re going to the reunion, I’ll give you the 4 little factory Marlin screws I just took out of mine this morning.Marlin Lever Action rifle, it has a tang sight added that I now want to remove. I need to find a way to fill the extra hole in the tang. Seems like a simple job, but I don't know where to find a screw-hole filler. Can anyone help?

I agree with the others. Red is permanent on tiny screws. Blue may even be pushing it.I don't want to weld it up, or JB Weld it - I'll take the old screw to Ace and see if they have an allen head screw that will work. That and some red lock-tight should make the fix for me.
Thanks for the answers.
