Trigger Guard Problem

[Brandjie]

Hi everyone.
I bought a a-bolt in 375 and took it to the range.
I mounted a leopolt 3-9x 40 scope.
Excellent grouping.
I had it on a rest and in my haste to test the rifle had it wrong on the rest,
After 5 shots the recoil broke the trigger guard, it cracked.
Does anyone know where I can find a new guard in South Africa?

Hope someone can help you out.

Midway USA lists them for $47.

Know anyone travelling from the US to RSA? Is it legal to bring in a part to a gun???

With all the PHs and associated people working the shows here in the USA and Canada, someone should be able to secure one and take it to you. NOTHING illegal about it, it's a piece of metal.

375 I am in full agreement with your flow chart!

Replace it before you break the trigger as well. I know a guy who fell off a bluff, breaking the trigger guard and trigger of his A-Bolt in one go. End of hunt for him and a nice dent in his hunting budget!
