I guess the $1,500,999 price increase isn’t enough to procure the services of RIA, Christie’s, Southby’s, etc. Let’s go with EBay at $3,000,999.

Buy a 66 firing pin and the screw on piece that has the 2 strikers and modify these. The hard part is making the bushing that takes up the excess headspace. Winchester Bob sells the 2 parts but the bushing is on you.

Read the old posts.

I have been going through the Cody McCracken Library online and haven't seen any drawing of the 66 or 73 bolts.

ANTHONY I would like to try to find a member that has a 66 with genuine factory CF bolt that would be willing to have all the dimensions taken by a trained machinist for accurate measurements let me know if you think this is a something that I should pursue or not my best as always to you and yours gene 66

gene,

I am very aware of you're pursuit in this as we've discussed in the past and can understand you're posting this here on the general forum. You've been searching for a spare or extra M-1866 bolt with the Center Fire conversion intact that has proven over the years to be as rare as the old proverbial "Hens Teeth", comparison.

Possibly if a member has one of the original 1,020 M-1866 Winchesters that we're sent to Brazil in 1891, they can help out with you're request in getting numbers with pictures, so you can find a machinist to help you duplicate a bolt that you are having a hard time finding.

A few M-1866 we're and are converted from the .44 Henry Flat cartridge to the .44 Center Fire cartridge conversion you are seeking, using the original bolt, which IMO, would surly be a lot less challenging and work to accomplish!

Good Luck in you're search.

Tony
