Hi all,...Savage 99 brush gun, .358 winchester, bought used a few months ago, after first few (4) rounds, fore end rattled loose, tightened down, loosend again and fell off, stud stripped out of dovetail- replaced stud and it did the same thing (this is the stud stripping out of the dovetail, not the screw stripping out of the stud)-
Could too tight a fit for the fore end between the stud/barrel and the receiver cause too much stress during firing (i.e. sand down the receiver end of the fore end?) and bust it loose? Its a little frustrating-
help always appreciated!
