The SASS Wire is just like any other forum, you've got the guys that want and try to help and you have the other guys that think their way is the only way and they're very vocal about it. At least that's how it was when I was going there. I haven't been on it in a number of years.

So, I cut 7 coils off the mag spring, shaved a 1/16th off the plug and 1/8th off the back of the follower and it's all good. 10 rounds of .38 in the tube and we're good to go.
Have to wonder if the last round will still load under spring tension. You can now get them in, but can you get them out?

Lay the rifle down on a table with the muzzle pointing in a safe direction. Push down the loading gate with a stick or something. You can usually wiggle stuff around enough that you can unload the gun through the loading gate. Just be careful, don't use any tools that might somehow set off a primer.

They will, it's a common mod on 92's.
