magazine tube

Post by porthos »

i have a 1897 lever 22lr. i am having great difficulty getting the magazine tube, both inner and outer assembled properly. firsst, this is a restoration and it is/was a basket case. along with the magazine tubes, the new ejector won't eject. the extractor pulls the fired case out and it lays inside the reciever. so, this leads me to my post question. the rifle is at a gunsmith at this time; but i have my doubts about his fixing the problems. SO, this is a 1903 production gun. is there a real marlin gunsmith out there that i can send this to if it is not corrected??????
