Remington 1100/1187 speed loading gate

Hi, I have a DMS Remington speed gate somewhere, I will try to find it if you wish. However, the reason I have it is that I found that the mass of the gate "fangs" (so called because they bite!) caused chatter and flutter in the cycle operation, (even after I shortened them a little to reduce the mass), which led to occasional fails to feed etc. My remedy was to fashion a small stainless steel plate with a curve, fix it to the original mag gate button and thus facilitate easy (non biting!) speed loading. This works as there is far less mass to contribute any flutter and, using the original button means that everything fits properly (some filing is needed with the DMS system) If you check out the 'Semi Auto Club' thread on page 26, there is a picture of my 1187 where you can see my speed gate. It has never failed and this was a scrapper shotgun that was given to me by a mate as a hopeless case. Happy to send close up pics if you wish or can post on the thread
