572BDL Failure To Feed - Typical?
I recently bought a used 572BDL (1969) and have shot it at the range a few times now while trying to figure out which ammunition it likes best. I have had a few instances where after firing a shot, I cycle the slide and it ejects the spent cartridge, but jams and fails to feed the next round. It see...

Re: 572 front sight screw question - FRUSTRATED!
Thanks Wulfman - I do appreciate your help. I should've done a bit more research before I posted - but it looks like a case of simply the wrong part.

Re: 572 front sight screw question - FRUSTRATED!
I think I figured out my problem: Midway USA actually sent me the wrong screws, mis-labeled. It appears as though they sent me (2) Magazine Screws instead of (2) Front Sight Screws. This is evident after I studied the following photos of each one and determined what I had. Now it's on to do battle w...

I intend to shoot the gun quite a bit as a plinker at the range, and after a good cleaning and inspection I decided to order some replacement parts online (Midway USA). Mostly screws (the ...

Re: 760 - sling swivel question
rem141,
Thanks for the info. and your suggestion. It sounds like a bit more than I'm capable of getting into myself - so I may just live with it as is.

760 - sling swivel question
I recently inherited a 760 in .308 - LOVE the rifle. I want to put a sling on it for deer hunting, and I was told by my local gun shop that I need to use a barrel-band type configuration for the front swivel, as the fore-end cap screw for my particular model doesn't allow for a swivel. I checked Unc...
