Don Coyote, SASS #63736 Posted January 22, 2022 Share Posted January 22, 2022 We have an Uberti saddle ring carbine as a great backup rifle. I'm curious about how to remove the ring loop so that the rifle can be staged flat as is required. Particularly, what to fill the holes in the frame with. Any suggestions?

Caladisi kid Posted January 22, 2022 Share Posted January 22, 2022 You are not required to remove the saddle ring per SASS SHB unless you want to. I have it on mine and no problem. CK Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jackrabbit Joe #414 Posted January 22, 2022 Share Posted January 22, 2022 Yo Don that saddle ring is ok. Got it on a couple of mine. Never have had a problem lying flat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BLACKFOOT SASS #11947 Posted January 22, 2022 Share Posted January 22, 2022 Saddle ring is fine, just can't stage the rifle with it proped up on the ring. Blackfoot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
H. K. Uriah, SASS #74619 Posted January 22, 2022 Share Posted January 22, 2022 I am currently putting the saddle ring BACK on my Uberti 66 that a previous owner removed. I stage them loading gate down, since I shoot left handed, but I see plenty of pards laying them ring side down, and nobody complains or says there's a problem. That being said, take off the stock. You'll see a nut holding the ring in place. Good luck getting in there to loosen it without lots of dexterity and right sized tools. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buckshot Bear Posted January 23, 2022 Share Posted January 23, 2022 I'd be loath to remove the saddle ring. I reckon they look great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dantankerous Posted January 23, 2022 Share Posted January 23, 2022 A SRC just ain't a SRC without the SR! I shoot a SRC on occasion and the SR doesn't pose enough issue to go through the hassle of removing it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grass Range Posted January 27, 2022 Share Posted January 27, 2022 Not done anymore but some time ago all were removing the saddle rings from their carbines in this area. Claimed they rattled and scared game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blackfoot This is how I have heard the rule is to be enforced and how I have seen it implemented. But I must be missing the exception written in the SHB. For my own education a little direction would be appreciated. Thanks in advance Gateway Kid Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaleWolf Brunelle, #2495L Posted January 27, 2022 Share Posted January 27, 2022 There is no written exception. Here is a related Wire thread from 2012 that covers the question. No need to go over this again. (ignore the extraneous chatter) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
