    Default Little help

    I have an old Western Auto Parts, .22 Rifle. It is a Revelation 100A. I know it is junk and not worth anything. BUT, I am messing with it. I have been getting about 1 in 5 misfires, very light firing pin stikes. I want to replace some parts. I BELIEVE that the rifle was actually made by either Mossberg or Savage, and parts are available. Anyone know for sure. I saw a Mossberg today marked BSA for the boy scouts and it is almost identical.

    P.S. thanks in advance for any info.

    It sounds like a weak spring but if the gun is an old barn gun and shows it, it may just be crap in the firing pin channel.

    Thoroughly cleaned it. Disassembled the bolt assembly. I got it for twenty bucks. I wanted to try my hand at a cold blue job, and messed around with the stock a bit. If I can tinker with it and get it to run fine, it will give me somethiing to do over the winter.

    I know the stock looks like crap, but I used some Minwax stain that I had laying around....

    Actualy it looks real nice! What cold blue did you use? 44/40? I always enjoyed taking a beat up old rifle and returning it to a nice looking little plinker. Remember the TRUE value is what you put on it in the end, NOT a price tag.
