Mungler Posted March 8, 2007 Report Share Posted March 8, 2007 Hacksaw a good 3" off the barrels that should cure it, but remember to take 3" off the right end of the barrels else the weight distribution will be right off and you will have nowhere to put your cartridges.

ROBLATCH Posted March 9, 2007 Report Share Posted March 9, 2007 this is a problem or another that occurs with may second hand shotguns purchased as if we had to be fitted for one (like the green wellie brigade) the cost would be much much more than what we pay.experiments make wonders. good luck :( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
