I just bought a Remington 870 12 and will soon pick a magazine extension kit for it.
How do you remove the internal spring retainer at the top of the magazine tube (under the thread-on cap). I thought it just turned out, but it doesn't appear to be threaded. There is a slot in it and I can see the end of (I assame) a plug to limit its capacity to 3 shots (a legal requirement where I am for hunting). Thanks for the help. |

Rick,
you should see an indention on the magazine tube that holds the retainer inside the tube. simply push the retainer down into the tube with a large screwdriver and align the slot in the retainer with the indention and then let the spring push it out coming by the indention it should come out easily. ------------------ Gun Docc http://guncustomizing.bizhosting.com/1.htm |

Note that those little indentations will need to be removed by your gunsmith to get the extension to function properly (i.e., no shells will go past them).
