You may want to rephrase the question to where on the gun/action. ;)
My guess is down in the magazine box?
So whats my prize?
OK i give up what is it, looks like a steel ball with a hole with grease in it
looks like a bead to me, maybe used as the extractor detent ball?
Think about it. The only place that a ball bearing is at is behind the extractor. Unless it was an aftermarket gunk button that came apart, but it would stay in the back of the bolt assembly. I think that the hole is an optical illusion, I believes it is a impression from the spring that would have sat behind it, and launched it out.Quote:

Well you guys got the location correct. It is not an optical illusion, remember I said I had a good laugh. I'm sure the light bulb will come on for someone. ;D
an earring
still looks like a bead to me, a nickle plated bead with the seam on the side
Your dogs' right nut?
Ok, there is some illusion going on. The center shiny part is just camera effect, ignore the shine, you can't see that with your eye.
Is it part of a pull switch chain for a light fixture?
Ohhhh it was in the baffle.
Nope, wait it was in the bolt where the lift kit would have been..
O.K. Rob, how long you going to keep us hanging ?
We have a 2x winner. Was it my "I'm sure the light bulb will come on for someone" comment ;D It is that type of pull chain bead thingy but probably off something smaller. It still has the cut off link in it, that is what is sticking out. It was under the extractor. I was bored so I trued the head in the lathe and tuned the ejector and replaced the extractor ball. As I went to throw out the old ball, I noticed it had a hole in it. I bought this action for a project and as usual I go over them completely. This was the final bit of work I did to it, glad I saved the best for last.Quote:

Yup you are right, I just forget about them.Quote:
