Hello...been a lurker for a while, great site with knowledgable folks!!
Looking for a little help. A bud had his sportsman 58 lock up SOLID. Asked if I could take a look...took a while but finally did it get it broke down. What a pita that was. I found the ears on the locking block had sheared off which didn't allow the block to drop and allow free operation of the action.
I've searched the net over for parts schematics/breakdowns...had a tough time, did find one but it didn't have any PN's. I did find that many of the parts are interchangable between the 85/870/1100/11-87. Is the locking block interchangable with any of the above models? Or, does anyone have a line on a 58 locking block? Not much out there I could find on 58 parts. Any help is much appreciated. I'd like to get it going for them.
