Woaha! Thats a 795?
Guess they have started to use molded in swivels like they did to the XT line. That is unfortunate! The older stocks had a real metal sling stud that you could mount up to with ease.
Sucks to say it but it looks as if you will have to drill out that area and put a real stud that is held in by a nut on the inside. (if there is room on the inside)
I will change the guide to reflect this new change!
About Simple Green and aluminum. I have never heard of this. In printmaking class in college we used it to stop etching chemicals now granted those plates where most of the time zinc. Google does turn up many forums talking about this subject. But it also turns up this: http://www.simplegreen.com/solutions...query=aluminum
I have never used simple green on a firearm I was just suggesting a degreaser that I thought was relatively weak. I always use mineral spirits to degrease but I have never needed to use it on a 795.....have been used on aircraft, automotive, industrial and consumer aluminum items for over 20 years. However, caution and common sense must be used: aluminum is a soft metal that easily corrodes with unprotected exposure to water. The aqueous-base and alkalinity of Simple Green All-Purpose Cleaner can accelerate the corrosion process. Therefore, contact times for unprotected or unpainted aluminum surfaces should be kept as brief as the job will allow - never for more than 10 minutes.Comment

...and found a product they have specifically for aluminum

Regarding stud mounts for 795, i dont know what i have since its not in my possession right now but if I see that lousy moulded-in mount i'll think about changing stocks.
Speaking of stocks, are there any hardwood stocks available for these guns? Are the laminates plastic, for example Boyds? Does anyone have concerns about laminates coming apart? Outside of the new 60 i have no experience with laminates.Last edited by CharlesV; 12-10-2012, 10:53 PM.Slim River Carry Slings for Henry AR-7Comment

Alright guys got some questions about the mags on my 795. The rifle itself shoots great and is super accurate. Now the magazine that came with the rifle is very tight in the mag well. I got to give it a good tug to get it out. Is there anything i can do to make that a little easier to get out?
I also bought two more factory mags that go in and out smooth but one of them with the last shot the bolt doesn't stay open. I'm guessing its the mag, if so is there anything i can do to fix that.Comment

Boyds stocks are laminated wood. They are not plastic.
Laminate refers to the process of bonding multiple thin layers of wood together with alternating wood grain directions. Think of the stocks on an AK47 for example. They are extremely tough (stronger then non laminated wood) and are less subject to swelling then regular wood.
No they won't come apart.
IMO laminate stocks are better then a regular "solid" wood stock
Boyds stocks are amazing quality at a great price
The mags being tight in the well is just how 795 are.
You could SLIGHTLY bend the magazine release back a TINY bit. WARNING do this at your own risk. I know a member here that had to order a replacement because he bent his too far and it caused his rifle to malfunction.
You could also polish the inside of the magazine well a little bit. Again at your own risk!
If your magazine is really hard to get out it may be out of spec. Earlier this year I purchased 2 more magazines that both ended up being out of spec. The spine on the back was poorly tac welded on and bent outward at the top. The folded back edges where not pressed all the way together when the spin was put on either. That caused two problems 1 its now over sized 2 the weld spilled into the inside of the magazine causing bumps. These bumps would sometimes cause the follower to bind. At least another member on this site had the same issues as my magazines
Not saying that is the problem with yours but worth a look.
Its probably just that your rifle and magazines are new.
Shoot em a bunch and I bet the magazines will become easier to remove without doing any thing to them or the rifle.Comment

Looks really nice!
It's marked North Haven, CT so it is pre Remington buyout for sure.
You know maybe I was wrong about the serial number now that I think about it. If you don't ignore the leading 00 then 100-00 could equal a manufacture date of 2000..Comment

Yep, mine guess exactly, but stil is on ald gun
But im glad is not an remmlin But an genuine Marlin...
Schoots razor sharp. Had her yesterday for the second time out in the range, and schot 100 through it.
I most be to much with the oil.. After the first magazine, the bolt was closed. Te next mags it was open, like it should en alway stay-ed open.. Had none problems. No fte no ftf or stovepipes.Comment

Yup. But no fear I have 2 Remlins and they are perfect.
I think there may be some Remington made ones with CT marked barrels as they used the last of the old stock. I remeber reading that around the change over. Who knows if it is true. Does your serial number start with letters or numbers? If MM its Remington.
Yea probably too much oil.Yep, mine guess exactly, but stil is on ald gun
