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

RE: ROSSI .45 Help!!!!
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
