Install Stoeger m2000 magazine extension?

KancamangusMangler · June 27, 2008, 07:19 PM

I just received my magazine extension for my 2000 defense model and have no idea how to install... Anyone out there know how to remove the follower/spring from the current magazine?

I really want it to do a little more than look cool

Thanks, I had actually managed to figure it out before they put those videos up - it's a pain but definitely worth the hassle... I had forgotten to update this post.

Overall I'm happy with the extension. The finish on the cap is scratched up pretty badly already but I think it was a one time thing - the seller offered to replace it and I'm just waiting to hear back from him. The only other issue was the spring that came with it didn't seem to want to work without binding up, a quick order from Brownell's for a new spring solved that one though.

Where did you get it?

I'll post some pics later today if I can remember.

I picked it up on ebay, I think the sellers name is "flatlandforge" - I'll check when I get home (but if you search for "Stoeger extension" you'll be able to find it, they have one for the defense model and one for the regular model).
