Do they really beat up the reciever something awful like I have ehard? I got one from a guy to use at school. Have'nt seen it eyt but heard about the aluminum reciever getting tore up by the bolt. What should I be looking for when I take this one apart? Anyone make buffers, or is it even a good idea? Thanks guys.

    The 190 has to be the largest peice of crap Winchester ever inflicted on the rimfire shooter. I have several of these in my shop and have since refused to take anymore in for repair. I have one that will at times go full auto, three that jam something awfull, two with the bolt handles broke off, three that the bolt has gouged the hell out of the inside of the reciver, two with boken hammers, four that have the sears worn off the hammers, and two with broken triggers. When I get the ones in my shop back to thier owners I will accept no more.
