I picked up a Remington Model 11 shotgun recently. During dis-assembly, I noticed the magazine spring seemed weak so I ordered a new one from Gun Parts. The new one seemed just as weak and even shorter, but had the same number of coils as the original. However, neither will function correctly - the springs are too weak. It appears these springs may be sized for a magazine tube plugged down to 2-3 rounds.

Anyone know where I can get a spring that will work with 5 shells in the tube?
