I have a glenfield model 60. It's got some wear, but still feeds. The local gunsmith advised me that the feed throat is nearing the end of its life. He said that the sign is, when loading a round, if you ride the charging handle, it will jam a round nose up instead of chambering. But if you let the charging handle fly, it feeds fine.
So my question is, how to best manage the feed throat to get the longest life from it?
Was the gunsmith correct?
Can I have my feed throat plated again to prolong its life, if so what would it cost?
Anyone have a spare feed throat they want to get rid of to keep a 70s squirrel stock 22 going into the forseeable future?
The rifle is a fine shooting gun and i don't want to give up on it.
