There might be a market, John, but I would think 
only to those folks attempting to create a museum 
piece with 100% accuracy. I'm not sure that goal 
is even reachable except in very rare instances 
for a NIB device. 
 
For me, just trying to get some gear to retain its 
covers and bottoms, the 9 cent stainless steel 
screws are simply good enough for my purpose. 
 
I guess the ARC-5 versions would need the black 
and SCR-274-N stuff the nickel, right? 
 
And somebody has mentioned the internal tooth lock 
washers to accompany the replacement screws!
