Default Help.....Stripped Grip Screw.....

Tried taking the grips off the 1911 and the bottom grip screw is stripped...can't get the allen wrench to grip anything...

How does one go about getting it out...

You are going to stick the allen in the stripped screw & with a hammer whack the allen hard to jam the allen into the screw, & it'll screw out
