Remington 581

Post by Guest »

Does anybody here have one?

Mine does not want to eject unfired rounds of ammo. I use mine for squirrel hunting, and I have had problems with it not wanting to eject unfired rounds at the end of the hunt. It will eject spent rounds without fail. Any ideas on cause/repair?

On the new .17 based on 22 long rifle (.17 Mach 2), I saw that some companies are making replacement barrels. Does anybody make one for the 581?

Does anybody make aftermarket stocks to fit the 581?

Thanks,
Steve

I had a 582 that did the same thing.

I bought it used. I shot a lot of shorts in it and managed to lead the chamber hugely. When I loaded a long rifle it got crammed into all that lead. It would fire ok but it didn't like to be unloaded. Had to poke many out with a cleaning rod. Scrub the lead out. I bet that fixes it.
Good Luck
