Alright I bought some of those punches but I'd like to re-attach the tube clamp back onto the barrel. Is this something I should let a gunsmith do so that I don't harm my barrel? Or is there something I can buy and use that is gun friendly.
Edit: I should add that I mean attach it so that it...
Seeming to have problems with this rifle and it's driving me insane. I've figured out the problems and bought the tiny pin I needed for the magazine tube but I've done more damage than good in trying to get this tiny thing into it's hole.
First I knocked off the little tube clamp and am...
Tiny notch....missed that part. Also managed to lose the tiny pin in anger and had to order another one. Is there something I can use to keep the magazine tube clamp ring thing on my barrel without harming it? It's completely loose and came off so I have it sitting in a bag wondering how I...
Alright I'm having problems getting the tiny little magazine tube band pin in. I've tried to use my punches to put it in but it's not wanting to go in correctly and actually ended up scratching the hell out of my magazine tube. What's the trick to this nonsense? :mad: Which way is the pin...
Ah thought so. I bought some brass punches so I'll try padding the end with tape or something to not scratch up the bluing. Just wanted to make sure there was no screw I had to loosen or anything before I tapped. Thanks guys.
Try getting a gun storage bag. They should be around $10 and I believe are made specifically for storing guns to prevent rust with a treated plastic of some sort.
Phew. I put it back together finally and cleaned it up quite nicely. Now all I need to do is to learn how to take better pictures :)
Do all 39a's come drilled for a weaver mount? Mine doesn't have two screw holes on top of the receiver.
Here is my '52 39a that I just picked up and shot today. I had a couple problems.
First I only shot about 60 rounds today just to quick test it before it rained and I had several problems with the round not loading. I would work the lever and it would extract the old round without a problem...
Get to pick up my rifle on Tuesday but I think it's supposed to rain so I might not even get to shoot it. Waiting 10 days for this rifle is killing me.
Am I reading the serial number chart correctly when I figure my J239xx numbered rifle is made in 1952? If so, will be SOL when it comes to finding new parts if any break?
Found a used one in a shop the other day and picked it up. Been wanting one of these things for a very long time now and I finally own one :)...after the 10 day waiting period in California that is. My serial number was J239xx I believe. That makes it a '77 correct? It was in fairly good...
