a5 magazine tube removal

treyt3495 · January 4, 2010, 11:05 PM

I have a 1994 model Browning A5 and the magazine tube broke off in the forearm nut. I have ordered a new one from Browning. How do I get the tube unscrewed from the receiver? I took out the screw that holds the selector switch in but the tube is so tight I can not get it to budge. Any help please.

Sorry for the duplicate posting but I need this gun fixed quickly. Im leaving Friday on a hunt. Trying to get as many eyes on it as possible.
Removing the nut is not the problem I'm trying to get the magazine tube out of the receiver.
