I have an old Nylon 66 and one of the long screws through the receiver has fallen out. Can anyone direct me somewhere to get this part?
 
Don't overtighten the receiver screws, just snug them down otherwise you're liable to have jams. Ask me how I know.
 
Those screws don't hold the gun together, they just hold the sheet metal cover on, so they don't need to be super tight.

Overtightening the receiver screws will cause the plastic action underneath to bind and will cause jams. You can forget about mounting a scope too, unless you can mount it on the barrel. These guns were never pretty, but they were light and accurate enough and with a little maintaince and halfway decent ammo went bang everytime. They are still being make on Remington's old machinery in Brazil.
