Hey All!
Lately there has been more and more scammers on the forum board.
They register and replies to members requests for guns and/or parts or other things.
The reply contains a gmail or hotmail address or similar ”anonymous” email addresses which they want you to reply to.
DO NOT ANSWER ANY STRANGE MESSAGES!
They often state something like this:
”Hello!
Saw your post about purchasing a stock for a Safari. KnuckleheadBob has one. Email him at: [email protected]”
If you receive any strange messages:
Check the status of whoever message you. If they have no posts and signed up the same day or very recently, stay away. Same goes for other members they might refer to. Check them too and if they are long standing members, PM them and ask if the message is legit. Most likely it’s not.
Then use the report function in each message or post so I can kick them out!
Beware of anything that might seem fishy!
And again, for all of you who registered your personal name as username, please contact me so I can change it to a more anonymous username.
You’d be surprised of how much one can find out about a person from just a username on a forum such ad our!
All the best! And be safe!

So no issues with the bolt guide you think?
I finally got the firing pin back in the bolt and in the “uncocked” position. Protrusion looks excessive to me as well as brass buildup on bolt face.
Thanks! My Father-In-law bought it about 30 years ago and it had been re-chambered in 300 Win Mag. He had a break put on it and it's been like that every since. Has always shot sub moa with Hornady 180 gn SP's.
Got it open...used a cleaning rod to verify chamber was empty and at same time put a little pressure on bolt face while opening. With the bolt all the way out the guide spins freely around the bolt....is this normal?
Yeah unfortunately I just inherited this and not sure on chamber but will assume it's loaded. May just take it to a gunsmith. I tried using a punch to slide the guide back (I think I was doing that correctly) and it wouldn't budge. The safety wiggles a bit and that's it.

Hi Guys!
Did a search and sounds like it may be the bolt guide but not sure how to find/access it??
Bolt will not open and safety will not move either.
Thanks,
Brent
