Couldn't tell you,I just cut and pasted a link I found. It is the same rifle as mine.

SA, you can check out Peterson's in Mount Dora. They've been around forever, and if he can't find the part, he probably can make it. He fixed up my grandad's 270 when nobody else could, and he was very reasonably priced.
Take Nacho Grande's suggestion....separate the wood from the metal and spray it heavily with WD 40 or simlar light oil. Work the moving parts and you may find there is nothing wrong with the rifle. I had a similar experience with a Colt Lightning .22 that a friend gave to me because it did not work. The slide action was stiff and it did not fire. I cleaned it and it worked perfectly. I determined the value of the rifle and returned it to my friend, explaining that this was a rare and exceptional rifle and should remain in his family.
