    Very easy to make up yourself The threads are 6mm and your get a couple for cents.

    Put the bolt in an electric drill and grind the head down while it's turning against a grinding wheel. Keep dipping the head in a cup of water to stop it getting too hot

    By putting the bolt in the drill you get a nice even turned down head. After the head is the right looking/fitting shape then cut it to the correct length.

    Its easy to do and i have it done that way on all my rifles

    On closer inspection they're fine thread, and actually cheese-head not countersunk ?

    But they are still 6mm ;)

    And if they are a tight fit again put them in the drill and grind them to a smaller diameter

    That place I mentioned is a wholesaler for screws, bring your one in and they will give you a selection of different screws to choose from!
