Does anyone have a winchester model 270 .22LR? Got a question


Recommended Posts

I received a Winchester model 270 from my father in-law, that he dropped, took apart, and couldn't figure out how to reassemble. Well after ordering a new trigger guard and buttstock that he broke, and figuring out how to reassemble, there is a recoil plate that goes inside the receiver, but can't figure out how it attaches. It almost looks like it was glued in, but not sure. Ive looked at a couple different schematics online and none of them shows an assembled rifle. Does anyone have one of these rifles that can tell me how it attaches? Or send me a pic? Thanks for the help

I don't know if you still need this info but here it is. The reason that little steel plate fell out is because you removed the buttstock. The tip of that long bolt fits between the two raised dimples on the plate, thereby holding it in place. It took me a while to figure it out but logically it makes sense because it protects the back of the receiver from the bolt and the buttstock screw. looking down into the receiver with the barrel pointing away from you drop the receiver plate in with the short part toward the top of the receiver, keeping it over to the left side so as not to bind up the slide rail on the right side. Good luck I hope it helps.
