Winchester 1897 6 Round Kit?

If you're talking about the Wild Bodie Tom kit, the new spring should extend out the mag tube about 4". If it doesn't, stretch it out.

Another cause could be crud in the mag tube binding the follower.

Another cause could be a dent in the mag tube binding the follower.

After checking spring length and cleaning the mag tube, I would try dropping the follower down the tube without the spring to see if it binds up anywhere.

Agree with Kingsnakes assessment, if it is a Wild Bodie Tom kit. If it’s someone’s else’s, I know nothing about them.

Tom’s kits work great. J M

Hi Cat, this shotgun was sent to the Gunsmith who installed it. He fired it in a video but I couldn't get it to run correctly. Thanks for your concern, regards, Mike
