Anybody know off hand what the thread is that is used on the long thin screw that goes thru the ears on top of the P14 action to hold a PH5B sight in place?

2BA?

According to my reference the screw, axis, backsight is a good old Enfield make-it-up-as-we-go-along. Major diameter 0.096", 56TPI. No tooth form information given.

I don't think you will find one of the shelf. Like I said the last one I got had to be made for me.
