    Sears 30-30

    Have a Sears 30-30 that is very, very hard to chamber and when trying to open the bolt as well . Any suggestions on what the problem might be?

    A Collector's View - The SMLE Short Magazine Lee Enfield 1903-1989. It is 300 8.5x11 inch pages with 1,000+ photo’s, most in color, and each book is serial-numbered.  Covering the SMLE from 1903 to the end of production in India in 1989 it looks at how each model differs and manufacturer differences from a collecting point of view along with the major accessories that could be attached to the rifle. For the record this is not a moneymaker, I hope just to break even, eventually, at $80/book plus shipping.  In the USA shipping is $5.00 for media mail.  I will accept PayPal, Zelle, MO and good old checks (and cash if you want to stop by for a tour!).  CLICK BANNER to send me a PM for International pricing and shipping. Manufacturer of various vintage rifle scopes for the 1903 such as our M73G4 (reproduction of the Weaver 330C) and Malcolm 8X Gen II (Unertl reproduction). Several of our scopes are used in the CMP Vintage Sniper competition on top of 1903 rifles. Brian Dick ...

    Probably just needs a good cleaning, including the chamber, and a little oil.

    If you tell us what model number is on the barrel we can look it up and help. Otherwise we're guessing...

    But why bother? He hasn't been back on site since posting. In June.

    And it's not even military.

    Grumble, grumble. I'm getting crusty...

    My fault. I should have and normally do go look to see when that was. I can't imagine dredging something like that up from the dead files in the first place. I thought it had just appeared.
