Pumps on the other hand strip pretty quickly. Last edited by postoak; 11/25/12 07:46 PM. Mine's a tale that can't be told, my freedom I hold dear.

Mines a 26" bbl'd version. Slick little gun, but it won't see any 3" shells from me. Still had the TD spanner wrench in the mag tube. Probably because no body knew it was there. The knurled TD ring shows a few helper marks but not bad. One third turn rotation of the TD ring and the barrel & forearm assembly pulls forward off the receiver.
