I'm having a ton of problems with my win model 100. I can't find a stock anywhere, and all the gunsmiths in my area can't break the gun down. PLEASE HELP!

If it cannot be cocked, let me know, and can give you some suggestions on disassembly. Good luck, shoot safe.

No Bobski,dealers could call and give the serial number and Winchester would tell you if the pin had been changed if not you could send the old firing pin in and they would send you a new one and a $25.00 check to install it.This was for FFL dealers and Gunsmiths only.I don't know if this if this has been changed?

no, thats still correct. for some reason i thought smiths were suppose to smack a mark somewhere on the gun. i may be wrong. its been years since i owned 100's.
bobski,Winchester never told me do do this.Way back when the recall was first announced (before I was an FFL) I sent mine off to a gunsmith in New York.I've never noticed any marks on it,but I'll check.[:)]

i may have miscommunicated. i meant, no, you are right. its done the way you mentioned. i may have the 3200 recall mixed up with the 100 recall..[:)]
I gotcha.[:D]
