Howdy,

I was recently given this old 1934 Mossberg Model 34 .22 cal. single-shot bolt-action rifle. Looks to be all original and fairly good condition. Seems to shoot fairly consistent as well, though I have not sighted it in yet.
After taking the bolt apart to clean out that old "gummy" grease, I found the firing pin has cracks.
So now I am in search of a new (used) firing pin and/or striker assembly and/or a complete bolt assembly. I have learned that the bolt is interchangeable with the Mossberg 30, which is also the Wards Western Field models 35A & 37.
It still fires rounds, but I want to be prepared for the inevitable. I'm not sure if I want to refinish the rifle... I kinda like the rustic and well used look of it.
Any help with a striker/ firing pin/ bolt would be greatly appreciated.

Jesse

crooks,

Twist that nut from under the forearm, in front of the trigger guard, pull the barrel and all out of the stock. When you have that out, take a can of carburetor cleaner and spray the livin' tar out of everything, the trigger assembly, frnt sights, inside of barrel, give it a good go! I'll be you'll be surprised how much GUNK will roll off of that piece. I have a Rem. # 33 that was like that, kind'a neglected. The bolt cleaned up nice, mine wasn't broken tho, the barrel and everything cleaned up really well, the bore actually shines now! Just a little TLC and you'll have it up and running soon. Good Luck!
