The reset rod is number 26 on the technical drawing. To remove it, you will have to (once the action is out of the stock), unscrew the upper tang screw bushing (Number 32) from the stock. A driver bit that is the right thickness and the exact width of the bushing will be needed for this. Not that Parker did put a stamp mark in the busing and the wood in order to allow proper locating of the bushing. This is important because the bushing acts as a spacer between upper and lower tangs. And the holds in the bushing can sometimes be off center allowing for adjustment for locating the upper tang screw. After the bushing is out, then the rod will pull out the front of the head. The screw bushing is what retains the rod in place.
It COULD be that the bushing was removed by someone in the past and that is causing the excessing movement of the rod back and forth.

SO- if that bushing is gone is it fairly easy to replace if I can find another one?
Looking at the FAQs disassembly seems pretty easy. I have a good set of gunsmiths screwdrivers, and the screws on the bottom aren't pristine anyway, so I think I'll take it apart this weekend and give it a good cleaning and looking over. Anything else I should look at closely while in there? Are there areas on the stock that are prone to cracking I should inspect? |

If the bushing is missing, contact me. I have several.
If you run into any other issues, or have any questions, let me know. You
