Disassembly and reassembly of Savage 99 carrier

This video shows a complete tear down and reassembly of a Savage 99 magazine carrier. The process is quite simple and straightforward so put aside all the scary stories you've heard and give it a try.
For a more detailed discussion on this particular carrier, check out the thread below where I discuss what condition it was in when I found it.

Reminds me a bit of the internals of a spring return on a stamping mechanism we use. Might take some fiddling to get the spring tension just right, but with patience, it's doable. Thanks for the full disassembly! 👍👍

Where are all these people that tell you how to set it? I can't find any and having trouble with it

Very cool

Awesome! I saw your post on Savage shooter, this just adds to the perfection. I recently picked up a very old 99 is 303 that is missing the complete carrier group…😢. I have had zero luck finding one. I have contemplated trying to get a 3d scan of one and seeing if I can find someone to mill one from a CAD file…. I don’t know what the options are at this point. Great video though.

I've looked at machining some up myself and they're actually a very complicated part that just doesn't lend itself to machining cost effectively. It's a great part to cast though. If you ask around on some of the forums, you should be able to find someone that will have the parts you're looking for.
