What are the chances?

What would be the chances of a Steyer Mannlicher M1888 bolt showing up for sale anywhere?
Been trying eBay, Numrich, etc.

Any ideas or leads ?

Thanks in advance

In truth europe is a good place to look, or just random google searches for Mannlicher 1888 parts.

Very difficult part to locate. If it is because you see one of those boltless M88s for sale, this isn’t a quick part to find. There is a reason they are all sold without the bolt and it is because that part is the most difficult part to locate. Some have searched for years and not succeeded.

Best of luck if you go down that route, easiest way to find one is to buy a rifle with one.

Thanks for the replies. May pass on this M1888 restoration project then.
Always other MILSURPS that need some TLC

I know the feeling. I have a beautiful 1916 Spanish Mauser without a bolt. Been looking for months. Closest I can find so far is a complete sporter for $400. An expensive bolt.
