Be prepared to upgrade your Remington 870, 1100, or 11-87 series shotgun with ease using the XS Sight Systems Magazine Tube Detent Swage Tool. This high-quality, durable tool is specifically designed to modify the magazine tube detent on these Remington shotgun models, making the installation of a magazine tube extension a straightforward process.
In the past, adding a magazine tube extension to your Remington 870, 1100, or 11-87 series shotgun involved removing the mag cap, prying up the magazine spring retainer, swapping out springs, and then attaching the extension. However, with the introduction of the detent style magazine spring and mag cap retention system, this process has become more complex.
The challenge lies in removing the detents so the follower can slide past them. The most common solution has been to grind them away from the inside. While this method is effective, it leaves unsightly marks and creates two openings in the mag tube, which can allow dirt and other debris to enter.
The XS Sight Systems Magazine Tube Detent Swage Tool offers a reliable and effective solution to this problem. This sturdy tool allows you to easily remove these detents without creating holes, maintaining the integrity and appearance of your shotgun. Trust in the reliable performance of this tool, made by the reputable brand XS Sights, known for producing high-quality gunsmithing tools.
