You might need to go up to a 10-32 if it's too far stripped, but you can try re-tapping with 8-32 if there's enough of the threads left.

You could always tap it a little larger, and get a larger screw. I had to do that to one of my sabers. Only downside is finding that ONE different size hex wrench among all of the others!
Imagine what you will know tomorrow....
