Which specific rifle models is the Lyman Trade Rifle Lock Screw Bushing designed for?

The Lyman Trade Rifle Lock Screw Bushing (LY-6030140) is specifically designed for the Lyman Trade Rifle, including both flintlock and percussion models. It is also compatible with the Dixie Hawken rifle and other sidelock muzzleloaders produced by Investarms that share the same lock geometry.

What is the primary function of the Lyman Trade Rifle Lock Screw Bushing and why is it important for my muzzleloader?

The primary function of this brass bushing is to protect your rifle's wooden stock. It is inletted flush into the stock on the side opposite the lock plate, acting as a metal-to-wood interface to prevent the lock screw from sinking too deeply or damaging the wood when tightened.

What material is the Lyman Trade Rifle Lock Screw Bushing made from, and why is it often purchased as a replacement part?

The Lyman Trade Rifle Lock Screw Bushing is made from durable brass. It is often purchased as a replacement part because, being a small and unattached component, it can easily fall out of the stock and get lost during routine disassembly and cleaning of your muzzleloader.

How should the Lyman Trade Rifle Lock Screw Bushing be installed into the rifle stock?

The Lyman Trade Rifle Lock Screw Bushing is designed to be inletted directly into the wooden stock. According to Lyman's official guides, it should sit completely flush with the stock's outer surface, bottoming out securely in its pre-carved cavity to provide proper support for the lock screw.

Trade Rifle Lock Bushing - Lyman LY-6030140

The Lyman Trade Rifle Lock Screw Bushing (SKU: LY-6030140) is a genuine original equipment manufacturer (OEM) replacement part designed specifically for traditional black powder muzzleloaders. This small but critical brass component is inletted directly into the wooden stock on the side opposite the lock plate, positioning itself directly under the head of the lock screw. By acting as a durable metal-to-wood interface, the bushing prevents the steel lock screw from sinking too deeply into the wood or crushing the stock fibers when tightened. For Australian black powder shooters and historical re-enactors maintaining their traditional firearms, this high-quality brass bushing ensures structural integrity and precise alignment of the firing mechanism during assembly and disassembly.

Key Features of the Lyman Trade Rifle Lock Screw Bushing:

Stock Protection: Distributes the clamping force of the lock screw, preventing damage, cracking, or compression of the wooden stock.
Flush-Fit Design: Engineered to be inletted completely flush with the outer surface of the stock, bottoming out securely in its pre-carved cavity.
Corrosion-Resistant Material: Manufactured from solid brass to withstand the harsh, corrosive residues associated with black powder combustion.
OEM Precision: Direct replacement part ensuring exact tolerances and compatibility without the need for extensive modification.
Essential Spare: A highly sought-after component due to its small size, which makes it prone to being misplaced during routine field stripping and cleaning.

Technical Specifications:

Brand: Lyman Products
Model Number: LY-6030140 (also referred to as 6030140)
Material: Solid Brass
Dimensions and Weight: Ultra-lightweight, small circular profile designed to fit standard factory-carved stock inlets (exact physical dimensions are proprietary to the manufacturer).
Compatibility: Designed specifically for the Lyman Trade Rifle (both flintlock and percussion models). It is also compatible with the Dixie Hawken rifle and other Investarms-produced sidelock muzzleloaders that share the same lock geometry.
Electrical Compatibility: Non-powered mechanical firearm accessory. It requires no electrical input, making Australian 240V, SAA, or RCM certifications non-applicable.

Who This Product Is For:

The Lyman Trade Rifle Lock Screw Bushing is an essential acquisition for Australian target shooters, hunters, and historical re-enactors who operate Lyman Trade Rifles or compatible Investarms sidelock muzzleloaders. Because these small brass bushings are easily lost during routine cleaning and maintenance sessions, keeping a spare in your range box or workshop is highly recommended. It is ideal for firearm owners undertaking stock restoration projects, routine maintenance, or replacing lost original hardware to keep their traditional black powder rifles functioning safely and looking authentic.
