Remington Mod 81
Can anyone recommend a good gunsmith to work on a Remington Model 81 in 300 savage? The spring in the magazine is missing and the bolt will not close. Thanks

"Why not send it back to remington in NY"............Remington will not work on 'obsolete' guns, the m-81 was discontinued in the 1950's 0 -
Thanks for the input. Tried Remington Corp. with no luck. I hate to relegate the rifle to the "junk" closet because it has a really pretty walnut with what appears to be ivory inlay in the stock. Thanks again for trying to help, I appreciate it. 0 -
If only a spring is missing posting in the GB wanted forum could help. 0 -
there is not much to the insides i have fixed a couple sounds like one of the small parts in the action might have come loose 0 -
Try williamsguns@yahoo.com for parts. You didn't mention it, but you are aware there is a bolt release lever on the left side aahead of the trigger. 0 -
Yes sir, on the bolt release. Thanks though, I have been guilty of over looking the simple things on more than one project in the past! The bolt actually closed before I left this rifle with a local g-smith for 26 months while he " searched" for parts and when I finally decided to try something else, I picked up the rifle and the bolt was open and was told he couldn't get it closed after he put it back together. 0
