I bent the catch so now the fit is tighter but now when I load the mag the bolt won't push the first round into the chamber. The first round is stuck :(
I took my new Mosin out and the mag holds the rounds in fine when not firing, but the recoil opens the mag catch on the baseplate. Nothing looks like it is out of sorts. Any ideas?
Thanks,

Thanks for the explanation. My Express has the end cap designed for use with the new style mag spring retainer (without the detents on the lip of the end cap). I no longer own an Express barrels though. All my barrels have the ball detent so I just need the correct endcap. If anyone knows...
I'm not understanding how the endcap can get loose from recoil just because the mag tube has no dimples. The only difference would be the spring is against the endcap thus creating some pressure on it. I have three 870s and none of them have any mag spring retainer. They are all against the...
Years ago the only shotgun I had was an 870 Express. I wanted a mag extention so I got rid of those dimples in the mag tube. Now I have a couple Police 870s so I don't need the Express to have a mag extention. Can I go back to the end cap/retaining system that came with the Express? It was...
thanks for all the info. The main reason I want one is that I don't want to keep it cruiser ready with four in the tube (spring fatigue). With an extended tube I'd feel fine keeping four in it and have extra shells close by. That way if I didn't have time four would be enough I bet and if I...
I need to pick a +2 mag extension for my 870 Police. Any thoughts on which one I should get? I don't like that the Choate has a plastic end cap. I have no experience with other makes.
should I pay $4.11 per 10 rounds Estate buck?
I'm in need of a starting stash of 00 buck. I can get 100 rounds of Fed Tac for about $75 delivered from Ammoman. Or I can get Estate for about $60 delivered. I know that's overpaying for the Estate but nobody has it. I really need some decent...
