Correct Dave, self loaders were banned in 1988, so all we can have are straight pull versions with the gas system permanently disabled. Some folk from lands west of the Atlantic call them neutered,...

Thanks Jim (and Flydthecat), the slider nailed it. I swopped the one from my Winchester and it cycles and locks perfectly! I now have to try and find a replacement slider, which won't be that easy as...
