And now,
Style 3 Same as Style 2, but eliminates the magazine tube slot and barrel pin, and replaces them with a 5/8 - 11 threaded barrel channel, for aftermarket barrels to be used. I didn't want to shrink the barrel recess anymore, since its already fairly small, so I had to make this design a box magazine fed only variant, as the tube magazine placement would get too close to the barrel threads.

Well everyone, thanks for all the ideas and feedback, if you like it let me know, if you think it won't float, let me know.
I'm humming right along since yesterday, finished up the bolt/charging handle/action sideplates/stock/ & barrel, so the mockup CAD model is starting to look like a rifle... Hopefully by tomorrow I can blueprint the rest of the small parts... I went with a benchrest style stock design, didn't worry about it too much, but I did take the time to copy the Marlin factory inletting, so this stock would be compatible with all other Marlin 70/700/7000/795 rifles, and stocks for those rifles would work on the MCI Swordfish. |

Alrighty, well after due consideration and listening to others much appreciated input (mostly from RFC and ARFCOM), I have come to a few conclusions:
Installation of this new mag release would involve action disassembly, removing the pin that holds the combined ejector bar/magazine release with the mag well, replacing the stamped metal part, and reassembling. Stay tuned for further development: |

Having never much cared for the 10/22, I find you ideas around the Marlin receiver quite interesting. |
