Old 110 bolt problems

Hello all,

Hoping someone here can help me out. Last year I purchased an old 110 .270 left handed as a backup gun. I noticed after putting a few rounds through it the ejector pin was stuck and wouldn't push the shells out. I tried everything to get it out but still wouldn't move. I pretty much beat it to death trying. I looked everywhere but trying to find an old left handed bolt head seems next to impossible. I bought a new head/parts for it but was hoping someone could tell me the trick to drilling it out along with fixing the rest of the bolt, to make the new bolt head work correctly on the older bolt. I remember reading some instructions on how to do it but its been awhile and now can't seem to find it anywhere. Or would like some info of a gunsmith to send it to who can fix it. Was gonna try and get this gun up and running this fall. Thanks for the help.

Which pin are you having trouble removing? Which stage of the bolt disassembly are you having problems with?

The side pin or retaining pin for the ejector. On the side of the bolt head. Even took it to an old gun smith that couldn't get it out. Heated it up, tried just about everything. I got parts awhile ago and was going to work on it but got put on the back burner. I was just hoping for a quick easy fix.

Sounds like if the ejector is stuck all the way in it probably has the pin jammed pretty good. Did you try soaking it in a good penetrating oil? I'm not sure if it matters which way the pin has to go to be driven out,some only go one way.

Maybe some parts of this video will help with your perspective. It really is pretty simple, assuming corrosion is dealt with first.
