Question
My uncle left me a western field bolt action 20 gauge. It takes a clip and i am having a hard time trying to find one. I was just wondering if you knew of any place i could find one. the model number is M149
Answer
Chris,
These are old guns and have been obsolete for quite a while. The Western Field model 149 is actually a Mossberg Model 185. If you are looking for a magazine, your best bet is probably Bob's Gun Parts at www.gun-parts.com
Look under 'magazines' and look for the 2 3/4" Mossberg magazines in 20 gauge. I think they cost about $35.
I honestly don't know of any other place you might find one of these...
Hope this helps you out...
