1905 Ross Bolt Release

[kanterj]

When I disassembled my 1905 Ross, the bolt release button and spring popped out. Like every thing else with this rifle, I can't figure out how to reassemble it. I haven't found any info on how to put it back in. Any help would be appreciated.

I'll answer my own question. The spring seems to recess into the release button and then seat in the stock.. When the action is removed the spring pops out. I put it in while pushing the action in making sure the spring was seated properly.

You got it.
The spring just fits in a hole in the wood and the release slides in the keyway in the receiver.
The stop and spring are quite often lost during disassemble, but if anyone ever needs one PM me, as I have a small box of them.
It will take time for a response however, as I don't drop in here much anymore.
