mossberg 595 bolt
n You will need to contact Mossberg to find out for sure.
You can check w/ Mossberg, or with havlinsales at their website- but the bad news is that a complete bolt will cost you about half of the value of the rifle, AND it should be fitted by a gunsmith. Sorry-
Havlins Sales and Service sold me a bolt about 5 years ago. I think they bought out all the old Mossberg parts. Don't know if they're still in business though.
Made from 1949-1957. The 142A is a bolt action, and is less common that the semi-auto version, the Model 152A. There is collector interest in the Mossberg 142A, and values are going up. Original peep sight is hard to find. Nice little rifle.

Mossberg or Savage/Stevens? Any particular model? sales@countrygunsmith.net
My cross reference show this as a Mossberg model 321 or 320 Bolt Action. I suggest you find a "2010 Standard catalogue of firearms" and look up the photos. Look under Bolt action rifles in the Mossberg section.
Try a Mossberg Model 385K. This is what it was originally
Unlikely, but contact havlin Sales through their website. They are the "go-to" company for ANYTHING related to Mossberg- and very nice people to deal with.
Your Montgomery Ward's shotgun was made for them by Mossberg, and is likely a Mossberg model 85 or 85b. Gunpartscorp has 20 guage magazines on their website (under Mossberg, Model 85b) for about $32 plus shipping.
