You can substitute a 39 or 39A breech bolt also. And either will be better and stronger if the 39 is from a high speed bolt. Almost all will take some minor fitting, and I wouldn't use a 39A bolt that's too new. I;d stick with pre crossbolt safety breech bolts.

Keep checking Ebay, as they come up there occasionally. Also might check Gunboker in parts search.
