After several years of running issues down various rabbit holes I have corrected everything but a missing cartridge stop on my Model 14 in 32 Rem. (Item #24 on the schematic from GunParts) I cannot seem to locate that part though; GunParts is sold out and so is everyone else that I Googled. Anyone have a lead?

Faced this issue with a Savage Model 29 pump 22. The 29 cartridge stop is held in place by pressure from the action bar. Easily misplaced during disassembly and like real estate they ain`t making more. Finally gave up and was fortunate to get the part in hand from a friend`s rifle and using it as template fashioned another with trial and error with files and a dremel tool. Still works after several years.
Was talking to another friend last week about it.He has a small Mill and I plan to take him the part from a 2nd 29 I bought and see if he can duplicate it. The price for that cartridge stop has risen to where it may be viable to make some. I`ll see him tomorrow and will tear down a Model 14 I have (also 32 Rem) and get his opinion on the cartridge stop for it too. Will let you know.

That would be terrific! Thanks much.

As I expected the cartridge stop for the 14 is a little more complicated than the one I made for the 29 Savage. Left both of them with my friend and he is going to give it a try with his mill. We decided that even with mill work the final fit would best be done with a good eye and sharp file. When he gets them back to me I`ll give it a go and as I did with the 29 do try fits till I get a working part.Will let you know and hope we can have yours running again.

Thanks much Sarge for keeping me in mind.

Photos are the original and duplicate . My 14 is disassembled and in process of being polished and blued so I did not try the new part. From the measurements the duplicate part appears to be almost exact. He was glad to do it for me but said "I don`t want to make a living at it, time consuming and tedious".

ah shucks, well I will continue my search then.

Wisner's has them in stock. About 30.00

No, they don't, I called them the other day. They told me it would be a 4-5 month wait.

Wish Weisner would state that on web site. I have seen them on eBay but people get the 14 and the 141 mixed up.
