I recently got a used Lyman Deerstalker and both thimble ramrod holders were loose and rattling. Tightening one was no problem, simply stuck a small screwdriver in the hole. But the one with the carrying sling stud attached has me buffaloed. Because of the stud, the screw holding the thimble to the bottom of the barrel can't be reached like the other one.
Does the sling stud merely screw into this thimble? I've tried gently turning it, and am afraid to use much force in case that's not the way it's attached.
Does anybody know how Lyman attached these forward studs?
