Mitchell Reel Museum Discussion Group

Hello, I am new to this forum and have a question? Does the Museum have an Ebay store or site? Maybe a list of sellers that donate proceeds to the Museum?

Ted,
Thanks for the reply. I used that link and went to the Ebay USA link. With the different sellers listed I wasnt sure if they were associated with the museum. I have a 308 I need a couple of parts for and will use that link. Thanks
Larry

Don,
I keep an eye on Ebay for parts and reels. I need a #2 bail screw and a anti-reverse dog/pawl spring. I used the schematics page and got the part #'s, now its time to search. I am sure I will need more parts for other models, but I lost those 2 parts and want to put them back. Thanks
Larry

John,
Thanks for your reply. The fact that the museum wasn't listed had me confused. If the museum gets any compensation from these sites that's good, still need parts. Will have to use the link Ted supplied and donate directly when funds permit. I have run into another problem with the 308, I looked up the serial # to make sure of the year it was produced. The serial # is 954408 which dates to 1955 if I read the guide right. The model listing says they didn't make a 308 until 1959. I used the 68 & newer schematic for the part #s. The older schematic has 2 digit #s, don't know how to convert them to newer #s. Will attach pictures once I figure that out.

Larry,

Just a thought from me. It might help you get answers faster if you posted your 308 questions/images in the Mitchell Reel Talk or Mitchell Service Talk sections including 308 in the subject line. That way 308 aficionados would be more likely to notice.
