Matt, the Voere Voehrenbach rifles are no longer in production (at least the German and Austrian made). I'm pretty certain that there is no other bolt that would "fit" them, not safely. There should be a country of origin stamped somewhere on the rifle...if it is Germany or Austria, there is only one source that I know of, and it would probably be worth your while to order the bolt, since these rifles are worth a little $$$ and not just disposables.

The company out of Germany was bought out by Mauser. When Voere went out of business, a very smart German man bought all the leftover parts. You can contact him directly, and he will accept cash through the mail, or I'm sure he can make other arrangements. Most European outfits will not accept overseas money orders, but they usually take CC's. You can also get a Visa Gift Card and put just enough money on there to pay for what you're ordering, then toss it when you're done for your own security.

Contact information is E-mail Leitung@jehn.de Web-site is
Jehn The name of the company is Gustav Jehn Gmbh.

Hope this helps point you in the right direction. Good luck!

It's hard to say, it all depends on the condition of the gun, the specific model, if it has a scope, etc. I've seen them running online for as much as $500 with scope. If your friend was really looking to sell it, your best bet is to get it appraised, and NOT by the guy you intend to sell it to! If this were some old, beat up Stephens that blue booked at $45, I would say forget about the bolt unless you can find one at a gun show for CHEAP...but you might actually have some value here...it's hard to tell until you have someone actually handle it and give you an accurate appraisal.
