Never used one, and have not been much interested. Still...
The receiver is a zinc alloy casting. The barrel and working parts of the action {hammer, lever, bolt, lifter, etc.} are steel.


Haven't even looked at one in years, but IIRC they did have a fair bit of plastic on them at one time. Barrel bands and such. Did they do away with that?
