I have a Glenfield model 20 Bolt Action rifle. .22lr circa 1972
Yes the one with a squirrel on the stock
Need to change out the ejector. A small wire looking thing that is #11on the picture
It's held in place by the take down stud. #48 Going by the picture it is screwed into the receiver.
There does not seem to be any place to use a screwdriver or a wrench to remove it.
My only recourse seems to be a pipe wrench which is going to bugger up the stud
Don't think scratches would cause any malfunction
Before I do this I thought I'd ask the brain trust here for other ideas.
The problem I'm having is on removal of a chambered round. The extractor grabs the rim fine and pulls it out. But it does not toss the shell out of the gun. The ejector is supposed to flip the shell out of the extractors grip. This is not happening. The shell just stays there held to the bolt by the extractor.
I have the new ejector. Just don't want to bugger things up.
Any advice is appreciated.
