Re: A very rare M77

I ordered the Jack First repo parts and I have a question about assembly; can I slip the bend of the safety link under the safety shaft arm into the hole or do I have to partially disassemble it?
Thanks,
Owen

Re: unique early 10/22 bolts

My bolt is from a 1972 gun. So, a hole on this side only is normal but some are drilled through? Still don't know its purpose.
I'm thinking of sending it off to get squared-up, headspaced and the FP pin-down for my takedown build. Unless it's collectable. Anyone doing 10 22 bolts?

Re: A very rare M77

Thanks a whole bunch, Bennet, that's exactly what I needed. You rock!
Jack First has a repro button and link for sale but I'd rather buy them from a member if anyone has a spare set they'd let go.

Re: A very rare M77

Finally brought it home and looked inside. Looks like a stock trigger but this is my first time working on a 77. I'm hoping someone can tell me what it is and what I need to restore the safety. The stock has been bedded and JUN 14 1968 is stamped in the channel. Pics: Resizer_17709266731431.jpeg Res...

Re: Classic VI Takedown 10/22

So, I took that extra stock set, opened the forearm up for a bull barrel and made a modern interpretation of The Chief's Scout Carbine as a lightweight, takedown scout. This is absoluutely, positively my last 10 22 money-pit custom build. The barrel is Volquartsen with the rail turned around to get ...

Re: unique early 10/22 bolts

I only have one 10 22 bolt that's not installed and it has a pinned hole on the opposite side that has no function that I can see. Is that the drill-through hole mentioned above and what is its purpose? Here's a photo:

Re: "extremely rare" M77

Thanks, Chad. I was pretty sure it was original. I always like to talk to sellers during a transaction; Bob was surprised by the high bids and said that his consignors can really use the money. They seem happy and I think it was a fair price with the missing safety, which has to be restored. Hard to...
