I bought a savage 10ml2 and do not know how to remove the breech plug. The guy sent me one piece of the Chuck Hawks removal tool. The rod not the piece that actually goes onto the plug. Can someone help me with this? I have another gun but it uses a 3/8 socket to remove the plug. Thx for your help

I can let you borrow one. PM me if interested. I think a number of guys have made their on tool, from a socket.

Rossman pointed me in the direction of making one from a socket. Friend of mine got a bunch of new style replacement plugs from Savage. Seems they'll hook gun dealers up if requested.

An 11mm socket and a file is all you need to make one.  |

AND Andy Dufresne's persistence from the Shawshank Redemption  Actually do you know how wide those "ears" need to be to fit the BP? I think they are 3/16 slots but don't recall right now. edge. |

In case you are interested I believe Luke still sells the savage BP with the socket removal head. Can get one with a bushing installed and kill a few birds at once if you want to ditch vent liners.

If it is any help when you get the plug out and decide to want to replace it with one that uses the socket let me know I like the old style plug's and would buy it from you?

I have a couple of the removal tool that have 4 ears and better material, I feel that if you have a problem they will hold up better than a socket. Just my opinion. But I'm also a fan of the ML1 and it is easy to modify the plug to use the same tool.

i thought I was crazy. I bought a used Savage and it has this type of plug.
I don't have the skill to make a removal tool. Where can I buy one?

You might want to check with Pete at Pa machine he used to make them. (610)923-9234. Is it a ML1 or ML2?

From the factory, BREECH PLUG WRENCH MLII - PN: 104942, just $25 plus shipping.
If you also want the little handle/ramrod extension, WRENCH HANDLE MLII - PN: 104943, they want just $4 for that.

I just got a used savage 10 ML two without a breech plug wrench. Someone directed me to this site and thought I would be able to get a wrench through somebody on here. John Hyland jsh42770@ail.com

I made this one in about 15 min. using a 1/4" drive 7/16" 12 point socket. It works great with Pete's breechplug or the Savage   |
