MOSSBERG MODEL 810 BOLT ASSEMBLY

Question

I received a Mossberg Model 810-A from a customer that needs some repairs with-in the bolt assembly. I have never worked on a Mossberg bolt action rifle, but it all seems pretty straight forward. However I found in my Traders Guide that this particular model with a detachable box magazine was only manufactured between 70-75. I don’t know if there may be any other changes to it other than the predecessor having a hinged floor plate. Has anyone had experience working on these rifles? And if so, can you give me a source that may be able to provide schematics and/or parts? Many thanks.

Answer

If you mean the 800 series there are significant differences in the firearms. This is most notable in the trigger group. If you meant the RM7 model there is not much difference in the design.

Answer:

Numrich has a fairly good exploded diagram for all three models and carries most of the parts. Frank de Haas’ book “BOLT ACTION RIFLES” has a good section on the model 800.
