On the Numrich Gun Parts website they list a bolt assembly for this gun for $54 but are out of stock. That would likely be the best and cheapest fix. To weld the bolt then mill it down to exact specs would require more than the home welder can do. I have a wire gun but would not attempt...

The bolt in the closed position is a loose lock up fit now as friction wear over the years has taken its toll. I am guessing that welding the bolt handle surface and then milling it back to original specs is the only way to fix it. Probably be an expensive fix. I looked around online a bit...

I have a very old Mossberg 640 K Chuckster 22 mag bolt action rifle (deluxe model). It has a 24" barrel and has been a great utility rifle. The problem I have is the bolt has become worn where it friction locks into the slot in the reciever. The bolt will not stay closed and I have noticed...

I would think someone would have come up with an efficient and workable design for a 22 mag autoloader. Maybe there was not enough demand or market for them. The 22 mag is very popular cartridge with alot of folks. Dave1

What was the problem with the 22 magnum autoloaders? Why did they go away? Dave

Considering the WMA firearms restriction, I would suggest a scoped 22 mag rifle with the heavier 40 grain bullets. I like and use the Winchester Super-X 40 grain full metal jacket for the hog work I do. One of those thru the head/brain or shoulder will bring the animal down. Practice with...

Does anyone know about the recall on S&W Model 681's? What was the problem and what do they do to correct or upgrade it? Does the "M" stamped in the frame mean the gun was modified by S&W for the recall? What is the current value of a nice 681 that does not have the recall work done...

681 Recall Info???? xxxx

What is a good, portable, inexpensive, store bought or home made shooting table that can be easily carried and set up for shooting, target practice, sighting in scopes, etc? A folding card table would be better than having nothing at all but I am guessing the light table wouldn't be a very...

I have a Mod 700 Remington BDL in 243 now. It is a great "all around" gun, but is noisy. The 243 will shoot 2" groups at 300 yards off a bench with my handloads. I am a feral hog trapper/control agent in Central Florida and frequently work around or near some upscale country clubs, high...

I am considering replacing my old 22 Mag bolt action truck gun with a 223 bolt gun. I will likely be using the heavier bullets for shots at coyotes, feral hogs, etc. I remember some discussion years ago about twist rates being critical when using heavier bullets. Do the factory stock barrels...

If/when you disassemble your 640 trigger, try to remember as much as you can and coach me thru it. :eek: Dave

I have lots of time as I am recently retired, just don't know anything about trigger mechanisims. Is there anything online about to remove and disassemble the triggers and do the work? It would help to have some kind of guide or pictoral step by step instructions. Dave

How much of a job is it to do a "trigger job" on one of these rimfire rifles? Looking at the trigger, there doesn't seem to be many moving parts to it. I wouldn't try it without some guidance from someone that knows what they are doing, but it doesn't look like it would be or could be too...

Considering the age and condition of this gun and the cost to have a smith work on it, I might be better off buying a new gun that has a better trigger and action. Dave

Just curious, how much of a job is it to do a basic trigger job on an old Mossberg Model 640KD 22 mag bolt action rifle? Is this something you can do yourself or would you have to have a smith to do it? My old gun's trigger needs some help. It is heavy and rough and has a lengthy pull...

Regardless of where you are located, finding hunting land and hunting opportunities late in the year can be/is quite difficult. Most hunt clubs and owners of lease quality hunting lands have already filled their club memberships, have signed leases, have established and familiar groups, etc...

A good quality, properly mounted, and sighted in scope is a necessity for any long range deer hunting. Once the gun is set up with the scope and sighted in at long distance (say 100 or 150 yards), practice, practice, and practice at the longer distances shooting from tree stands and/or...

Cartridge guns and then repeating cartridge rifles brought about the end of the muzzle loader era. That is a very clear distinction and in my opinion is what should be used as "the line". Muzzle loaders had to then and still have to be loaded from the muzzle, one shot at a time. Muzz guns...

I now have a new stainless Savage 10ML-II with laminated stock on the way. Should be here this week. I'll then see for myself what all the fuss is about smokeless muzzle loading. From all that I have read, there are many happy owners and the facts will speak for themselves. I hope to have...
