Sharkson Posted September 20, 2006 Posted September 20, 2006 I am going to use my buddy's shotgun for duck this weekend (my first crack at hunting - got my licence tonight) which he left with me for safe-keeping. After 12 years out of country, I think I'm entitled to a little compensation for the rent. I have no manual though, so... My first question is, how the heck do you plug this thing? In Ontario, we're allowed only 2 in the magazine, and it currently holds four. I have the thing stripped down. How do I get the magazine off the receiver? Is it threaded on? It won't budge. Is there a trick to get the shell follower to slide out? Once I get inside the magazine, I can plug it no trouble. Any help would be much appreciated. Quote
Full Bore Posted September 20, 2006 Posted September 20, 2006 The original plug is nothing more than a rod shaped like a long nail which will go through the hole in the end of the forend retaining screw. You can make your own with a piece of soft steel rod and peen the end over or have one made by a machinist. The original was made from alum. You don't need to take the mag apart. You can find a schematic at www.gunpartscorp.com Hope this helps you. [ 09-20-2006, 12:49 PM: Message edited by: Full Bore ] Quote

That makes the removal of the mag unnecessary; it's sure on there tight anyway. Thanks very much!! Quote

Check this thread (I know you have already seen it) at the bottom of page 1. That is the exact shottie I have, just not a slug barrel. http://www.benelliusa.com/cgi-bin/ultimatebb.cgi/topic/1/3369.html? [ 09-29-2006, 03:26 PM: Message edited by: Sharkson ] Quote
