Default ROSSI .45 Help!!!!

[]I was dumb enough to strip the threads on the glow plug mounting hole of my Rossi .45. So now what??

Is there a source for Rossi parts?? Can someone repair the head?? Does someone have a junker that has a good head??

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks

Hi,

You need a "Heli-coil" or "Nu-coil". Essentially a stainless steel threaded socket is screwed into the head and the glow plug screws into the socket.

These can be bought as a kit but you need access to a good drill press or mill. If you arn't comfortable with this any machine shop and many mechanial repair shops should be able to install for you.

Cheers,


Colin
