Default Lost string saddle screw on Agile Septor 827 :(

So I noticed today that the screw for the A-string/4th string on my Agile Septor 827 is missing. I emailed Kurt about a replacement but haven't got a reply yet, does anyone know if and where I can get a replacement on my own? What size, thread, etc.?

Just take one of the other ones out and go to a hardware store, find one that matches?

What brand is the saddle? Figure that out, and you can order a replacement set from AllParts.com, StewMac.com, etc.

Here's the type of customer service Kurt provides: I let him know the situation and he sent me a replacement screw for free! It's longer than any of the others but I can cut it shorter, I love the customer service Kurt provides and highly recommend him and Agile to anybody out there.

you would think that works, but hardware stores RARELY have anything that you could use for this.

Especially if you cannot tell the difference between a screw and a bolt.
