Hello everyone,
I joined the site a few days ago and have been lurking and reading since then.
I don't have a 336 (I have a 444), but I bought my 14 year old son his very first deer rifle a few days ago and gave it to him today. It is a model 36 in 30-30.
He was working the action to get the feel of it and it became very stiff. I checked it out and the hammer is very stiff when you try to cock it and it makes a grating sound. Does anyone know what the problem might be?
Walter
