Considering having a rifle deactivated

[legs748]

Get a blob of weld splodged on and whip the files out, wouldn't take long.

If it was mine thats what I would do.

Costs on deactivation vary, quality of the work can also vary considerably..

A benchmark price for deactivation and cert is £150, so unless you want to keep it as a wall hanger its not really worth doing, I would go the repair and keep route, Saddler's mate might be worth a shot as it really is a good idea to find someone familer with these rifles.

Thanks to Blu for sourcing a new part for me. I've gone ahead and ordered one.

Thanks to everyone else who looked too :cheers:

You're welcome and only too happy to help. It's just a case of knowing where to look. For lever rifles a lot of the smaller cowboy action web sites are the best places to check out.
