I read in a different post that the RG extrator and ejector are weak and likely to break and that the marlin 336 version of these parts are sturdier and fit the RG. Which marlin 336 version ejector and extractor fits in the RG 30-30? When i searched earlier it looks like there are many marlin versions. Ex: 336A, 336C, etc.
Thank you

Re: marlin replacement part #s
I haven't had a problem with mine and I think I've had mine longer than anybody has reported here. I know Bud's told me that I had bought the first RG4570, the day they became available. I even have the Rossi parts as spares as that is what I do with rifles.ned3030 wrote:I read in a different post that the RG extrator and ejector are weak and likely to break and that the marlin 336 version of these parts are sturdier and fit the RG.

My Marlin's have spares as well and I have experienced failures of both parts with the Marlins. That is not a statement of the quality of the parts, just I have (don't have all that I once had) a large inventory of Marlins and stuff wears out. I've also had handguns and bolt guns fail.
Might just see how it goes. The Marlin parts are available via a lot of sources on short notice. I think Rossi is selling the parts again now. Might stock one of each if you are worried about it.
As far as part numbers go, a 336 is a 336 regardless of the alpha character attached.

Thanks. Got a backup set on order. Seems like those may be the weak links in the RG... and of course the plastic mag follower. Plastic parts are made for toys! Have a SS version on order too. Glad i found this forum.

Re: marlin replacement part #s
I'm wanting to replace the safety on my RG 45/70 with the stud like you can do on the Marlin. Anyone know where to get one ?
