08/15

Forumians,
Attached are 2 photos of a damaged feedblock for a 08/15.
What is broken and missing is the lower end of the feedpawl that engages with the left side rail of the main mechanisim.
I am fortunate (?) two have two damged in exactly the same way.
Can anyone supply me with either a good feedpawl or an accurate drawing of one os that a replacement can be made.
Regards,
Maxim08

Hi Maxim 08,

I can send you an outline drawing. Send me an e-mail and I'll do the scan.

This was a very common way to "de-wat" a gun. You can see the small split pin that you can remove from the other side and then drive the shaft out to make repair simplier.

Best,
Dave W.
