Parson John Tourmann, #67768 Posted May 13, 2022 Author Posted May 13, 2022 Did you get the PM figgered out? Anyway, I need the trigger guard the most. But could use the floorplate and the rear guard screw. Im rebuilding a 30-30 788 rem. I can make the screw, but a real one would be nice. Parson
wagon trader Posted May 19, 2022 Posted May 19, 2022 what do you mean floorplate??? 788's are drop box magazine fed rifles, there are no floor plates. ???
Parson John Tourmann, #67768 Posted May 19, 2022 Author Posted May 19, 2022 no, there is a floor plate or trigger guard plate. The trigger guard hooks into a foreward slot screw behind the trigger the mag goes into a cut out in the bottom. I have a 223, and have had a 308. Im chasing parts to rebuild a 30-30. The 308 is longer than the 222-223-30-30. But can machine out the mag slot on a 222. Parson
wagon trader Posted May 23, 2022 Posted May 23, 2022 if you are looking to do a 3030, they are the same action length as the 222, 223 and 30-30 at 6 5/16ths. The bottom metal/floor plates are not the same on them? The 243/308 action is only a few 16ths longer at 6 9/16ths....quarter of an inch difference so one or the other should work. I dont think the 3030 has different bottom metal does it? Measured from the rear edge of the bridge to the front edge of the ring, the .44 Mag is 5-5/8", the .222, .22-250, and .30-30 are 6-5/16," and the 243 and 308 are 6-9/16. These measurements were taken on rifles in my collection Here are some good links to find measurements and info etc and after market parts that were made: http://ps-2.kev009.com/ohland/Rem788/Remington_788.html https://cfnparts.com/index.php?route=product/category&path=169 http://ataleoftwothirties.com/?page_id=422
wagon trader Posted May 23, 2022 Posted May 23, 2022 the magazine guide bars for the 44 mag and the 30-30 are the same part. ???
Parson John Tourmann, #67768 Posted May 23, 2022 Author Posted May 23, 2022 WT, sent a PM. This plate is the last piece I need.
