I have just purchased a Winchester 100 in 308. I seem to remember something about these rifles needing a FIREING PIN UPGRADE that at one time Winchester would offer this service. Also can I check my rifle and tell if may have already been done??? Thanks Ray

  I need to know if there is any company that makes stocks for 100 rifles.

  If memory serves,Winchester recalled the 100 years ago because of some problem with firing pins.
  A friend had one years ago and I spent more time working on it than he did firing it. As you can tell I was not fond of the 100. Sorry, it has been so long that I no longer remember how to remove the firing pin

  hoppy, removing the firing pin is easy, the trick is to get the bolt out of the gun. If you have the bolt out....

  It looks like the pictures show how to remove the firing pin. If the firing pin is the style shown, Winchester will replace it and send a check for $30.00 to cover labor. The old firing pin has to be sent back before they send a new one. You can call them at: 1-800-852-5734, for details.
