Do you know where you could get o ring if it needs replacing ? I watched video with Hal blood and said they can obtained at automotive parts store just confirming

Why not just use a lighter trigger spring and not drill?

Thanks for the tip

I bought two of these great rifles within six months of another, a 1975 all but new condition in September 2023, and a 1967 used, but still nice in March the following year, 2024. Triggers are about the same, around 5lb. The newer 581 off the bench will give my brother's Winchester 52-C a serious run with the same ammo! These are fantastic rifles! Thanks for the video.

1939 to 1955 was when the 74 was made .it was patented in 1902.

How did you seal the tail section?

Can you explain your sear adjustment procedure? Thanks

Thanks for the video. My 1968 581 (walnut stock) has a 3 lbs. 7 oz trigger pull so I am happy with that. I put a vintage Weaver scope on it and the accuracy is good. Hopefully, you will do more videos on this rifle.

What springs do you use to replace the factory spring?

JRE

I have a 1950 Winchester 74 22lr. It was drilled and tapped for a weaver side mount scope. I thinking of having it drilled and tapped for a modern center fire scope.

Great video

I've still got my grandfather's A5+6. It originally was purchased as a standard 'Plain Jane' A5 in 1928. He then sent it out to the Police Officer Equipment Co. to have the extension tube added and the spring replaced but he foolishly didn't get the sliding loop brazed to the underside of the barrel. He had a job during the depression as a guard at a prison farm. He would sit in a giant chair way above the yard. If the prisoners needed it he would drop single rock salt loads in the side and hand eject the shells with alternating 00 buck and slugs held back by the mag disconnect if they charged the chair or they ran for the tree line. I never saw the original nickle plated tube as an older brother fell with it in the 50's while deer hunting maybe that sliding loop would have saved it. Grandad removed the bent tube and restored it to an A5 and used it for 20 years more. I've since replaced the broken tube and spring and returned it to it's +6 or A11 status where it makes just such a fine pig and coyote gun.

I disassembled my 74 for cleaning and found a spring unattached. The clarity of the video showed me the location. Thank you.

That would be perfect for me! I am not usually a fan of using one machine to power another. I live on a small acreage and it seems like once or twice a year I lose a tree and this would get the job done splitting the few rounds I get and not put a lot of hours on my tractor.

Nice gun, but I think it lacks a compensator ;-)

Hey dude, any chance you have some footage of how the np205 is all linked together

Wicked systems 👌

Nothing chugs and kicks shells out quite like the Auto-5s

Did you drill and tap the receiver for the scope of did it come pre drilled? I’m restoring a 74 now and would like a scope but don’t remember if it was factory drilled.

Now to make it full ought toe. ha ha

That's BEAUTIFUL! I love it! I especially like the forend grooves. Ingenious. The only thing.... will the plastic tube cover be effected by heat? Maybe Delrin would have been better?

Found a 581 on GB this morning, ordered it immediately and its already on the way. Glad I found your video, I knew I was gonna have to do something to the trigger and this sure seems like the way to go! Thanks!!

Hello, your rifles look amazing. Did you install the recoil pad yourself or send it to a shop? Looking to get something similar done with mine. Any information would be appreciated.

OUTSTANDING, very well-done conversion, by far the nicest I've come across on UA-cam thus far. Thank you for sharing... I have a Remington 11 (Auto 5) that was built in 1917 according to the serial number and Remington's website. However, the bolt-release button must be depressed to load the magazine which makes it a poor candidate for conversion as a home-defense weapon.

Hi - At 15:36 looking at the trigger and trigger connector glued and screwed together. Is their a small lip just below the trigger connector and the top of the trigger? While looking at the trigger at 15 minutes and 36 seconds, if you look top left as you are holding it, it there a very small lip where the connector is joined to the trigger, I noticed a small lip which can be felt with a fingernail. Just checking as I did not notice the lip pre-gluing and wanted to check the trigger connector is not sat too far back because of glue. I used a small amount of epoxy which squeezed out, but wanted to check. Thanks

Gorgeous build. Ive got a Remington 11 thats US marked and in riot configuration from WW2 that I love. I've always wanted one with an extended mag, but im also looking for a Benelli 121 M1.

Can I send you my trigger so I can have this done on my rifle

JAPAN??? I have Remington model 11 that was my grandfather's that I want to do this to. Need to find new wood for it.

Well done sir! I'm hoping to do a similar project in the near future.

Well done! Very cool patent for the emergency brake :)

Can you still find the old Remington 700 trigger assemblies

Thank you 👍🙏

I’ve been looking on how to work on 581 trigger, have a friend that has one,must have 5lb pull also,Thanks for video!! Randy

Great vid. Thanks so much very well explained. You talk about aftermarket springs what is the best place to find them and what is your preferred springs, weight or thickness? Thanks again best explanation of a mod 700 trigger failure online.

Nice job.

Good scrapple needs to have buckwheat flour in it.

So it is a .356 screw,what is the thread pitch?

That’s cool. Works well.

I’m looking at doing a similar project so I’ve been doing a little UA-cam research. I really like the way yours turned out. 🤠 👍 👍

doing this same job tomorrow without having ever heard the horror stories or warnings. I probably woulda lost a finger lol!! thanks for the tip/info!!

Still got the old stock?

Flashbacks of my pap sitting at the table with a hogs head… he had an “eating screwdriver “ for getting in the crevices.

Thumbs up.

I have a beater Remington sportsmen that needs reworked

A pleasure to watch and informative. I have a similar vintage r700, a series. The sear screw is not making any difference...I adjust it and the Sears don't move . I'll double check. (Since found that on my model there is a "grub lock screw" rhat needs to be removed so you can get to the adjustment screw on both the pull and sear adjustment). I'm guessing a complete disassembly and clean might be in order...perhaps some gum or varnish from old lubricant etc is present ..or general gunk. I like the epoxy on the connector...I'll ponder that. Drill and tap may be excessive...but...good assurance. Lock tite red seems very confidence making...for keeping adjustments...but I wonder if you could adjust more later ..no judgement. Wishing you had a complete disassembly video at this stage. Was wondering if you were going to stone and polish the Sears too....ha. Many thanks Keep well. And thanks again.

I grew up in Bucks and Carbon counties ~ been all over the states thanks to the military ~ and I've been making my own scrapple for years. Went without for about 10 of those years and finally decided to just make it myself.
