Just got a Springfield 120 from my dad. It had been stored in his closet for a while and has some rust on the barrel and I am not sure if all the parts are with the bolt. It had bee removed and taped to the barrel a long time ago. There is a metal pice that obviously goes in the bolt but I am not sure how. It is also sloppy in there and does not stay in place if that makes any sense. It looks like there is a place where a pin could go to keep it in place somewhat.
Does anyone have an exploded view?
What is the best way to clean the rust etc?
Looks like the forum shrunk the pics. Click on them and they will get bigger.
Take the rust off carefully with "0000" steelwool and a light gun oil. It'll remove the rust and not harm the blueing, if you don't scrub too hard.
That front sight looks non-original.
For the bolt, check on the website 'e-gunparts.com' (Numrich) and see if they have a break-down drawing of the rifle - they don't have them for all guns. Also, they will have a parts list, and you can possibly crosscheck the parts you have to the list, and see if there are any obvious parts missing - pins and such. Otherwise, a good gunsmith can tell you if it is complete, and properly assemble it - shouldn't cost much.
