Winchester Model 12 Repair - 08/13/09
I have a very old Win M12 16ga. It was made in the 1920's
and still functions okay IF I use it as a single shot. The problem is with the shell feed. The shotgun
will NOT load any shells into the magazine tube.
I'm good with tools and would prefer to fix it myself.
Hate to hand it throw the repair window at Gander Mountain
and the local Basspro does not do any repair work.
So far my questions are --
1] How mechanically complicated is the Model 12 ?
2] Any tricky points to look out for ?
I certainly would appreciate any suggestions or help.
Thank You
