North American Arms "Grizzly"

[Brody Leader]

After being handed down to me from my grandfather I've taken some time to clean and restore this back to its beauty but when I've recently inserted the bolt into the rifle the firing pin has separated it's self from the bolt and I cannot seem to find and information in this particular bolt setup to get it back together.

I feel like the bolt it different ?

 

[Brody Leader]

Mine is in what looks like a cocked position .
The safety will not move but the bolt released after re inserting it into the action.

I think mine is a l57 from 1958
Grizzly north american arms co.
.308
The housing is different then in the tutorial that was linked

I'd say offhand that the "Grizzly" and the Anschutz built on the L46 may be about the rarest of the proprietary Sakos. And I doubt that either was ever distributed in the U.S.

Can you post some photos? It could have been based on the Sako P54, but I'm (purely) guessing it was more likely sourced in Canada from someone like Cooey.

If from Sako it would have, among other possible markings, "Made in Finland" somewhere on the receiver or barrel.
