bicykillgaz Posted October 15, 2014 Report Share Posted October 15, 2014 Hi, Does anyone know if it's possible to fit a mag extension to a 20g hatsan pump but still stay 2+1. I don't want to up my capacity I just want it to mount an accessory rail on so I can fit an ultrafire torch for lamping. I've got 250 acres where I can only use shotgun and want to get out lamping. It's a pain trying to hold a torch and pump at same time. Gary Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest cookoff013 Posted October 16, 2014 Report Share Posted October 16, 2014 wouldnt you just attach a torch to the barrel? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bicykillgaz Posted October 16, 2014 Author Report Share Posted October 16, 2014 I've not managed to find any decent clamps that wouldn't interfere with the rib. Then I thought about sticking something on the current mag tube but because of the length of the torch there isn't enough room. I figured if I get short extended tube and pack it with epoxy putty so it couldn't be used to extend capacity, then stick a scope to picatinny adaptor on like I have on my scope it would be quick and easy to interchange between rifle/shotgun.

Richie092 Posted October 16, 2014 Report Share Posted October 16, 2014 what about using something like this? http://www.aw-armoury.co.uk/nordic-components-barrel-clamp-220-p.asp Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moor man Posted October 16, 2014 Report Share Posted October 16, 2014 Not entirely sure but would this not mean it then becomes section 1 firearm ? regardless of any other modifications. I looked into this for my 12g S/A escort, my local gunshop would only supply mag tube if I had a slot for it and they would transfer it to my F.A.C. When it arrived it wouldnt fit any way.....wrong thread! New escorts have different thread to the older models, so it stayed as it was. Bit heath robinson I know but have you tried zipties? or hose clamps?(available in plastic too) Good luck, let us know how you solve it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mossy835 Posted October 16, 2014 Report Share Posted October 16, 2014 dont see how it would be sec 1,if the tube has a crimp on it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bicykillgaz Posted October 18, 2014 Author Report Share Posted October 18, 2014 what about using something like this? http://www.aw-armoury.co.uk/nordic-components-barrel-clamp-220-p.asp That would be a good option if it came in 20g. I like the scope to picatinny rail adapters as all my torches are fitted with adapters to fit on them an take seconds to swap over. I can't see how it would make it illegal as the capacity will still be 2+1. I see if I can make something at work instead. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because at the time that the extension tube is supplied it isn't packed with resin so is therefore Sect 1 so you'd need a variation to purchase in the first place and have it put on your ticket before it was modified.

You don't need an fac to buy the mag extension you can buy them online, it only becomes sec1 when fitted same as a rifle magazine. http://www.midwayuk.com/epages/Midway_UK.mobile/en_GB/?ObjectPath=/Shops/Midway_UK/Products/2171131077/SubProducts/131077 perfectly legal to buy.

welshwarrior Posted October 18, 2014 Report Share Posted October 18, 2014 Don't see how fitting an extended magazine tube to a crimped magazine can make it sect 1 you can still only fit 2 cartridges of the proofed length. In effect the extension is only a funny shaped magazine nut. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mossy835 Posted October 18, 2014 Report Share Posted October 18, 2014 as above, and you dont have to put it on your ticket. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bicykillgaz Posted October 21, 2014 Author Report Share Posted October 21, 2014 bit of a cheek to jump in but anyone got a choke key for said hatsan 20b for sale? cheers Gary I use an m10x25mm washer on a bit of string round my neck when I go out. It works just as well as a a choke key. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gazoo Posted October 22, 2014 Report Share Posted October 22, 2014 cheers Gaz but I sold that gun and want a choke key to replace the one I can't find to give with it , washer is a good idea but makes me look even cheaper than I really am (which is quite cheap) :-) Gazoo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
