I have a old 3030 by Western Auto/Revelation
(Marlin?)model 200 lever action carbine that used to
work without any problems. It has been sitting for ten
years and now I cannot get the bolt to open using the
lever. I tried loosening the screw on the lever and
that allowed the bolt to open and work the action but
I cannot get the lever to go back in properly so that
it will close completely enabling me to shoot the gun.
I can cycle the lever in a strange way and open and
close the bolt, but if I place it in a certain
position, then it doesn't close completely.
I can also monkey with it a bit and get it to close
completely and insert the screw to hold the lever open
but then cannot get the bolt to open or the lever to
move.
Any thought or help would be greatly appreciated.
