model 81 barrel lock spring

Post by kendall »

Looking for a barrel lock with attached spring, and or just the barrel lock spring. this is for a model 81 35 Rem.

Numrich has the barrel lock for $23 in stock. They are sold out on the spring. So can I assume the barrel lock from Numrich comes WITHOUT the spring??

thanks, Kendall

Thank you so much Cam. I was referred to the Jack First folks in SD by Jim of the Gun works video posted here. He was quick to reply to an email I sent him. I will call them in the morning. If they have one (or two ) in stock I will buy from them, and you can hang on to yours, unless you prefer I buy it from you, and I will gladly do that.

While I'm at it, what other small parts would be advisable to have on hand so that I can keep this cool old gun running well into the future??

Jack First had a used hammer lock spring, $9, and I also ordered a magazine indicator spring for $23, assuming it might be one that would fatigue and snap on me. So (cross fingers), my problems are solved. I took a pic of the gun and tried posting it, but file size is too large, I will re-size and get a pic of the rifle posted up.

thanks for your help P81
