Looking for Savage 99 lever hinge pin

[Texas10]

Friend lost the retainer screw that holds the lever pin on his Savage 99. Anyone know where to find such an animal? It's a mid 70's model 99CD series A in 308.

Thanks for any help!

The bushing screw is hard to find, buy it now! The screw alone goes for $26 at Numrich, but it's out of stock!

Thanks, Al. I found one on Ebay the other day. Should be arriving in mail today. If it doesn't fit (it too was off a 300) I'll have to back order one from Numrich, or hope for another showing up on Ebay.

You're right about being hard to find! Must be common to lose it.

Good news!! I hope it fits!! E Bay has become my go to for gun parts. I always check there first. If it's there, I usually get it faster/cheaper than Numrich, and half the time Numrich sends the wrong parts!

It fit and shooting buddy is very happy. Thanks for all the tips and support, guys!
