Hello shotgun guru's.
Can you guys explain to me the ball detent and what model 870's have them. As far as I understand, the wingmasters have them, the express line doesnt. Do the older Wingmaster have the Ball Detent?
Now, I believe its the locking mechanism of the magazine cap on the 870. Is that correct? What does it look like? What other types of of locking mechanisms are there?
A Wingmaster barrel with the ball detent on the barrel. I thought it was a locking mechanism for the magazine tube to clamp the barrel to the tube. What am I not undertsanding here?
How can I check to see if the barrel has a ball detent?
I have a 2002 Wingmaster, I believe it has a ball detent.
I'm going to pick up an old wingmaster tomorrow that I want to turn into a home defense gun. So I would like to buy a 18.5" barrel for it. Does the older Wingmasters also have the ball detent? What kinda of barrel do I need to ensure that they're all compatable?
With or without the ball detent, can I add a magazine tube without any issues?
Please explain all this to me. I'm so confused. I checked the search and it made me more confused.
Thank you.
