MOUNTING THE FOREARM
Pull back the operating handle. The action should stay open. Mount the forearm by
carefully sliding it over the magazine tube, and seating it into the receiver. (See
Figure 3). Screw the magazine cap onto the front of the magazine tube, finger-tight.
MAGAZINE CAPACITY
Five (5) 2-3/4" 20 gauge shotshells, Four (4) 3" 20 gauge shotshells (plus one in chamber).
MAGAZINE PLUG
You are responsible for complying with all laws regarding magazine capacity.
Your Autoloading Shotgun is supplied with a plastic plug inserted in the
magazine tube. It reduces the capacity of the magazine tube to two (2) shells.
REMOVING THE MAGAZINE PLUG
Move the safety button so it is fully protruding out of the right side of the
trigger guard and cannot be moved any further indicating the “ON” (SAFE)
position. Pull back the operating handle. The action should stay opened.
Visually and physically check the chamber, elevator and magazine tube to
be certain the shotgun is unloaded before removing the magazine cap.
Unscrew and remove the magazine cap. Push the magazine plug blocker down
with your finger and pull up the slanted end in a diagonal motion (See Figure 4).
Remove the magazine plug from the end of the magazine tube (See Figure 5).
Replace the magazine cap finger tight only.
