My Daughter's Winchester SuperX2 magazine takes 3 three inch shells. I looked at the end of the magazine and I'm not going to assume I know how it "should" come apart. I've got the manual around in a drawer but that's migrated to a "safe spot" somewhere.

Any ideas? Thanks...Bexar
 
Push in the square plastic tab on the front of the mag tube, that will release the spring retainer. Make sure you have your hand over the end of the tube so the spring and retainer parts don't go flying.
 
Thanks folks. RC...I'll save that link.

Any idea where I can get the magazine adaptor? Numrich/Gunparts is sold out.

Thanks.
 
Can't you use the old trick of using a piece of hardware store dowel, cut to the needed length?

Been there done that before...even one time used a whittled branch in a quick blind fix for a buddies. I certainly will resort to that if necessary; however, I'd like to go with OEM for this shotgun since it's my Daughter's. She gets top drawer best. I'll settle for a broken stick for my stuff. :)

Thanks
 
If you can't find one, I would prefer to use a rod of delrin or nylon that won't attract and hold moisture inside the tube.
Yep...that happened to a guy with a shotgun that got dunked. The "limiters" used to be made of wood in the Mod 12s. He meticulously cleaned the gun but didn't properly manage the magazine dowel. Sure enough it rusted up the spring...follower and tube.

Thanks.
