Home Forums Lever Action Central Rimfire Levers Need a Marlin 39A Breechblock

My kid got an early Marlin 39 for his 9th birthday and it turns out to have a cracked breechblock. On another forum, Jim Wisner told me that he could fit a 39A breechblock if I could find one, so now I'm in the market for one. Anybody got one?

thanks,

Okie John

Well as no one has answered, lets try this. I would take the breech block you have now and use it as a pattern for a new one. I would acquire a block of 8620 steel and find a hobby machinest to make a new one for you. Then once it was done send it out to be cased hardened. That breech block is not that hard of a process to make a new one from the old. The metal you can find from the internet by doing a search. Even in the annealed state it is good to over 90,000 psi. it does not workharden and case hardens vary well. Good luck. This model .22rf is I believe the best of all the repeters I've ever used. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />
