Limbs still safe to use?

Hi all

Yesterday when packing my bow up, almost in the dark, I took the string off and the bottom limb just fell off. Its a Sebastian Flute with ILF and whats happened is that the screw that goes through the limb into the knobbly bit that slides into the riser has gone. It has often worked loose before but I've always noticed in time and tightened it. Will it still be safe to use without that screw in? I'm assuming it will as it cant have been under any tension if it rattled loose and fell out and as long as the actual bolt on the back stays tight and in place. Havent tried to string it up again since though.

Whats your thoughts?
