Hi all- I have a Pentax 220 film magazine that is missing the "key", a half circle with a tab at the bottom. It is used to lock /unlock the magazine to the camera body. I bought a new part, but cannot remove the screw holding the assembly. The screw head is stripped.

Questions-
1) Does the screw turn normal or reverse to remove

2) There is a screw on the pressure plate that looks like it holds the shaft, which is what the Key is attached to. Can the shaft be removed, with the key, so that I can change the part?

3) any other suggestions?

thanks
