Where can i buy a Ranger model 35 22 rifle buttplate?
The buttplate on a Ranger Model 35 was made of steel and blued. It is about 1/16th inch thick and you can make one and cold blue as a substitute. If you want a rubber/plastic butt a Marlin 60 fits pretty good. I'd go with the steel if it was my choice
Can you find out who was issued your gun in a war?
Probably not- I am retired from the US Army- and in 23 years, I must have been issued at least 20 different weapons. When you leave a unit, the weapon gets turned in for re-issue to someone else. MOST military weapons did not have a record of the name of the soldier it was issued to. An exception to that were the rifles that were issued to members of the Swiss Army- when you finished training, you took your rifle home, and came back for two weeks of training each year. Many members of the Swiss military had a slip of paper under the buttplate with their name, serial number of the rifle, and their address- in case they misplaced their rifle, it could be returned to them. My Swiss K-31 was issued to Renee, who carried it for 20 years, and turned it in when he retired.
How do you tighten rifle stocks?
Best left to a gunmsithAnother answer:Many rifles also have a stock bolt under the Buttplate which if the buttplate can be easily removed (some are not easily removed). There should be a large hole under the buttplate where you can see the head of a large bolt with a flashlight. Find the appropriate long-shanked screw driver & tighten the bolt. Stocks sometimes loosen up from shooting recoil. If you have wood shringage, swelling, warpage,wood rot, oil damage, etc. then take the first answerers advice.

Did Stevens make a Favorite Ladies Model with the number 124 on the lower tang of the receiver?
The Favorite series is composed of many different variations, some only differing in the sights. The #21 Ladies Model is actually quite rare, but is often confused with the #21 Bicycle Rifle. They are marked similarly, but the Ladies Model has a vernier tang sight, high grade walnut stock and a Swiss buttplate. Digital pictures would help. sales@countrygunsmith.net
