Hey all went to the range today and noticed the the reaer wedge pin on my GPR kept coming lose.....so per the instructions i put a metal ber centered on lug and gave it a tap....and one complete side of the lug broke lose! i seriously tapped it like a 90 year old woman......how do i fix it !!
 
Just read a story about a 90 year old woman who laid out her husband with a cast iron frying pan. I'm thinking she woulda broke the lug too :grin:
 
Since it's a Lyman factory gun, the best bet would be to order a factory replacement. The manual should have a parts/price list with contact info.
One could be made but it's far simpler to order a replacement for that rifle.
 
Several years ago I bought a new Lyman trade rifle. When I started to assemble the rifle I noticed the underlug was completely missing. I took it to the Lyman warranty shop (Dixon's ML in PA).

I'm not sure if they put on a new barrel or brazed or soldered on the under lug.

I see you are in NY. Are you near the southern border? Give Lyman a call.
