I just had a nice 1941 Maltby Come in to be checked over.
I checked the Headspace & it was fine until I noticed that there was a large burr on the right bearing surface of the action.
What some one had done is peen the action over so that the bolt locking lug was contacting only on the burr on the action, to acheive headspace.
Has anyone else seen such a disastrous bodge, this action is now proably scrap.Information
