How hard would it be to modify stock risers to have a set screw in them???

I wish I could remember the parts store by Haun AB in germany I used I think I had to ask for thread inserts for them to understand what i was looking for but they were able to get them, they were metric threads though. Spangdahlem is about thrity mins from there if i rembember right... to much beer back then

Yeah there are some parts stores here near Bitburg I could probably get some, but probably not in SAE. Really looking to find something that someone has used so I know it works.
I got some fine grit drywall screen, that should work, seems to be holding pretty good on the side I didn't strip out.
