Tikka T3X CTR bolt release catch retaining pin

[precision_stalker]

Hi,

Does anyone either know the dimensions of the bolt release catch pin, or where I can get hold of a replacement? Mine seems to have jumped out after restocking it in to a GRS. Found the release catch and spring but not the pin.

Cheers

2mm as far as I remember. Sticks out from the flat about 4.5mm.

You could cut down a 2mm Alan key or drill bit to keep you going until you can get a replacement.

Locking the stable door after the horse has bolted but GRS identifed an issue with this a while back and manufactured a small half moon shaped bit of plastic which clips onto the (now lost) pin to prevent just that. It's free from GRS via your importer.

I’ve got some here if you want one. Just send me a PM

If you do improvise before getting genuine replacement - make sure the material is hardened

Goes with my reply of a drill bit or Allan key.
