Little Project I got to do today

[MrDig]

So when I was 12 or so I bought a Western Field 410 single shot Bolt Action from my neighbor. I paid 10.00 buck and the first rabbit or pheasant I shot with it.
Some time in the days when I was not paying attention the take down bolt went missing. My dad a machinist by trade did a rather haphazard job replacing it and the gun always had a little wiggle in it.
Today with a drill press, some files and a tap and die set I got it fixed so that it is fitted properly.
here is a pic of the end result

and here is a pic of the whole gun

Not Rocket Surgery but I'm kind of proud of it, and am grateful to my roommate for his kind instruction and knowledge.

Always fun to fix up something, exp from childhood! Good job.
