Need some help removing a belt clip...

[XD-9Guy]

I just bought a Kel-Tec pistol with a belt clip. The previous owner was a southpaw so I need to switch it over and I'm having trouble getting the allen head screw, that holds the clip on, loose.

Does anybody know a trick that might help me get the little booger off?

Put some heat on it. Since it is plastic I'd try a hair dryer.

That sounds like it has potential, I'll give that a shot tomorrow. Thanks

Heating it didn't create enough tension to get it out.

I ended up taking it to the little gunsmith shop in Moore(Nice guys in there), the fella took a Dremel and cut a little groove on the backside of the screw so he could use a flat screw driver to keep it from spinning while he turned the allen head. Worked like a champ.

One bummer... the belt clip is not ambidextrous.

The left side clip is good for a righty drawing from small of back. That's how I carry my Keltec. It's more comfortable than right side in the pants.
