Abstract: A rifle having a stock, a receiver, a barrel, a trigger assembly, a magazine, and stock inserts forming mounting blocks for supporting the receiver in the stock. The magazine is a removable integral sheet metal member with inwardly turned longitudinal retainer flanges along the top rear edges of the side walls, a vertical internal retainer boss along each side wall spaced forwardly from the retainer flanges, cartridge case loading ramp edge surfaces along the top edge of each of the side walls of the magazine spaced from the longitudinal retainer flanges, and internal stops on the side walls for limiting the upward movement of a follower within the magazine. The stock inserts are longitudinally spaced mounting blocks having upper cylindrical surface portions fitting the cylindrical surface of the bottom of the receiver along the forward and back ends of the receiver and rectangular side, bottom, and end surfaces for mounting the stock inserts in rectangular cavities in the rifle stock.
