My bosses' wifes sister found the old gun in peices in the bottom drawer of a chest of drawers she was donating to the Salvation Army. She asked me if I would like to have it, and of course I said yes!
No bluing left on any visable spots, was dissasembled ,the trigger spring, takedown screw are missing a small stove bolt was in the bag of parts I guess a substitute for the take down screw. Just spent the evening cleaning thick wax deposits and 0000 steel wooling with Kroil to remove the worst of the rust, not to bad ,the bore looks like it is going to clean up OK and most of the parts really don't show that much wear. Hope I can make a shooter out of it.
Here's the upshot, I'm not a puzzle solver of any type! I've got most of it back together but am having problems getting the bolt and slide to fit into the receiver. Tried Numrich for a breakdown but all they have on the mdl 12 is drawings that are not to scale and are certainly not in any sort of geographical system to help in reassembly.
Anyone know of drawings other than Numrich, tried the Remington site with no help. I would be forever in someones debt if they could help me out.
thanks in advance dagger dog
