I recently was given a very old, very dirty Ranger M36A. The bolt seems to have some issues, doesn't seem to cock when cycled. The metal is very dirty but may clean up with some elbow grease. The wood is actually pretty ding-free, again just very dirty looking. My Aunt (the rifle was my Uncle's) said she thught he had bought this rifle "around the '30's or 40's".
I'm thinking I may try to restore this piece and add to my collection. Does anyone have any info on this particualr rifle, and also, is there a sorce of parts for such an old 22. I'm thinking the bolt maybe missing parts, though I have'nt taken it apart yet? Also does anyone know an approximate value of this rifle in working order. I would never sell it, but would like to know how much $$ I should invest trying to bring it back to life.
thanks.
