Hi, I'm new to this forum, was looking for some info on my model 69 that I bought from a garage sale for $90. It was missing the magazine, and the old guy that I bought it from said that he had it somewhere, but never found it. I had never had one of these old rifles, so when I bought it, without having the clip, I didn't notice that the magazine release assembly was missing. I thought that maybe the hole was for a screw until I went online and checked it out. I have had this gun for about a month and have not been able to find that release assbly ANYWHERE! I found a picture of it somewhere, (but out of stock) that's how I found out how much was missing, and the name of it. I think that they called it the "magazine release plunger spring assembly" or something like that. He probably had that somewhere too, but it wasn't with the gun. It was kinda hard to deal with the guy cuz he had Alzheimer's and kept losing focus on the conversation (his daughter takes care of him), so it didn't take me long to see that he wasn't going to be able to find the parts.
This is my first post, so I'm going to TRY to post some pics. Maybe one of you fine enthusiasts might be able to tell me more about it, and whether I got a good deal. Also, if anyone has or knows of the parts that I need, please let me know. I hope that this gun doesn't end up being a money pit.
