Default 1/16" say what?

So, I'm trying to attach a Picatinny rail adapter to a dovetail rail,
and it uses allen screws...fine...I have about 25 small allen keys, but
this one...requires a frippin' 1/16" allen key, the smallest I've
encountered in my lifetime and of course I don't have *that* one. Any
thoughtful vendor would include the key in the parts bag...most vendors
seem to do that...but not this one. Grrrrrr.

That's what happens when you buy that cheap, non-union Chinese stuff -
slave labor you know. :-)

PS, make sure you use some Loctite on those allen screws. They take
quite a pounding and frequently loosen up.
