Jammed Remington Model 34 .22
Just need some advice. I've had this Model 34 for 65 years and never a problem. Let my wife shoot it the other day and she was able to get a cartridge jammed. Nothing moves and wondered if anyone had a similar experience. I know there are 2 pins in the carrier that can be punched out to remove it. But not sure if they punch out from left to right or right to left. Rather not take it to a gunsmith if I can fix it myself. Thanks for any advice.

To me it looks like the case is not fully in the chamber? can you push it in?

Re: Jammed Remington Model 34 .22
My 34 is prone to jamming if i dont keep it clean and oiled every 2 or 3 hundred rounds or so, and work the bolt with authority. Ive not been delicate in dealing with these jams, and will give it a good smack with a dowel to persuade it. Looks like the primed end is in contact and round is not fully chambered so smacking may be contraindicated. Ive never had to remove the bolt to fix a jam, i forgive these jams due to the wonderful accuracy. I originaly bought it when the kids were little i was gonna cut the stock, when i got it home there was not a scratch on it so no cutting.

Thanks for your replies. Case seems a little tight, but I'll try pushing it in tomorrow. This is the first jam I've ever had in this rifle. I know you can take the lifter out if you knock out a couple of pins,,but I'd rather not do that,,,,,,,I'll play around with it a little more,,thanks again.

Re: Jammed Remington Model 34 .22
When driving pins the rule of thumb is
Go RIGHT in
or you'll be
LEFT out.
New or old ammo? I have a sneaking suspicion that we will see bad ammo as the manufacturers have had to train new people post covid as the plants really get back into production. Hope not...
As was mentioned, give it a good cleaning .

Re: Jammed Remington Model 34 .22
Thanks guys. It was actually older ammo,,,,,,I haven't had time to try to push it back in yet,,,,,I can't figure out how it ended up like this. Just a little out of the chamber. I'll probably have time to mess with it this weekend..,,I was hoping that I wouldn't have to knock those pins out,,,,and I'm assuming that if I did that, the carrier would be removable.
