Not anymore. It's on its way to my place...

Thanks guys.

Now if I can just find a bolt or a magazine well follower. Apparently they sold one of each last week.

Rabz, I am sure they put up a heap of spare parts from either trade ins or hand ins, you probably left them with instructions to keep the bits you want apart for you. Or you should have. :D

So I ordered the stock on Thursday.

It arrived today, Monday.

Well done to "The Open Range" aka Shoesmith Gunsmithing in Toowoomba.

Rabz, there is a fella on a NZ shooting forum I haunt on occasions who is looking for a Sportco Mod 40 bolt, I found a couple on used guns and Oz gun sales, but they are complete rifles, keep a look out for one that has been parted please mate. :D

Model 40 has a retail value of about $40 last I saw one... :(

Makes it a pretty good bargain for a rifle though :D

Yeah, I forwarded him the price and links to the couple that I found, the rifle in question would have to be of some sentimental value cause I think it would be a costly exercise getting a bolt to him

Mine's a sentimental piece. So I won't be selling it now matter how poor it shoots.

Last one I saw went for $30-$40 dollars at an LGS.
