OK Folks,
I have an older Savage-Fox Model B. It has set for years and not been fired. So I took it out today and tried to fire it and nothing doing. With a fresh box of 16s to fire, well it would not open up enough to allow for the shells to be inserted. The action is nice and tight when closed and it opens readily with the lever. But when the barrels fold down they don't go down fully. I took the forearm off and then the barrels. If I shake the stock and receiver I can hear something inside "clink" around. I have not taken the receiver off of the stock as of yet. Ideas? Thanks everyone, and Merry Christmas!!!
