i checked numrich and they are out so i made a post in the classifieds and am putting one here does anyone know of companies that would have a bolt for a jc higgins model 103.181 (model 103 i assume) or a marlin model 80 from what i have read marlin made the jc higgins 103 and marlins identical rifle is the model 80 any info would be great thanks
Re: jc higgins rifle parts supliers?
According to Numrich, the Marlin model is 101, all of these Sears models are the same:
103.181
103.1977
103.19770
103.19771
103.19780
There is a Marlin 101 bolt on Gunbroker.

You may want to check with Jack First (he's in SD). They have an extensive collector of parts for models that are older or obsolete.
Re: jc higgins rifle parts supliers?

Fire off an e-mail to Bob's also...

He doesn't list a 101 bolt on the website, but he may have one, e-mail and ask.
Same with Jack's First....I have dealt with Jack's in the past, good outfit, and they really helped out finding some old parts......some they had, some they didn't, but they had EXCELLENT customer service.
Keep us posted on how you make out.

I'll second or third the Jack's First review, great people to deal with. The ladies who answered the phones the times I called were great to deal with. And their parts book are invaluable by themselves. Great source for old parts and magazines.
