"Snake Eye" screws

[TeufelgundenArmory]

Good afternoon, y'all!

I was wondering if anyone could give a little insight on the best screwdriver sets that include "Snake Eye" or 2H bits. I need a set for something I'm working on and I think google hates me because I'm not being able to find sets containing them, only information on the type of screw head. Thanks in advance!

since they're meant to be tamper proof, finding them can be difficult. i thought there are revolvers that use these screws? what are you needing it for?

Looks like this kit has what you need. I own this kit and it's built solid. Not cheap, but worth every penny.

that doesn't contain the correct bit/driver he wants

This set has 5 bits, but I can't speak to the quality of it. A lot cheaper, though.

My bad... Is there a picture of the fastener that I can reference?

If you're talking about these, then I did in fact give him the right kit. Look at the bits I circled.

If you don't care about destroying the fastener, then you can always cut a slot into it with a dremel and use a flathead.

btw, i've use needle nosed plyers to remove those types of screws before and 2 watch type screwdrivers also.....no damage to the screws. you could insert 2 just small enough phillips type into the holes and use a flat blade to help unscrew.

Depends how big the fastener is. If they're too small, you can also use 2 brad nails with a slot head between them for torque. But if he wants an actual driver for it, he'll need one of the kits I posted above.

You can also grind a notch in a flat head bit and make your own

Try Klein tools.

I apologize for the late responses guys! This one is pretty large, it's for the furniture on a Mosin 91/30. I am attaching photos, but the holes need to be 3/8" apart from each other. I have tried lowes and home depot. Lowe's had one set similar to the original response by @Certified Silly Goose but it's maybe 1/8" apart, and home depot doesn't even carry any, even online. They suggested I try cabela's. I have also tried (unsuccessfully) amazon. I plan on visiting a couple gun stores on my day off tomorrow. Will circle back. I appreciate all the responses, and keep em coming if you know of anything. Thanks.

Reminds me of the SUPER cheap early 90's trigger locks that Gander Mountain used to sell.

Holy sh*t memories flooding in

Snap ring pliers. I have several sets. None of them I think will withstand the torque he's gonna need to get that screw off.
