That is ironic in its own subtle way. Maybe it is to give practice in immediate action failure drills.... They also make a 3-gun load which is awful. They seem to jam in the chamber.
Seemed odd to me too. The #8 target loads worked really well, but that other stuff caused me to have to really yank on the bolt handle to eject the spent shell. I got through less than a box before I gave up on the crap.That is ironic in its own subtle way. Maybe it is to give practice in immediate action failure drills.
I also had these scratches appear .......I'm getting a new Mag Tube ; but I'm wondering how hard it is to get the old scratched one off ? Any hints ??Scratch Marks on Magazine Tube*more pics added*
I purchase my 930 SPX this past weekend. While taking it apart to clean and oil it I found these 2 marks on the Magazine Tube. I had only shot 10 rounds through the gun so far. The marks are deep enough to feel with my fingernail. The one mark extends to the threads where the extension screws onto however it is not deep at the point and the threads are fine. What are you thoughts? Friend of mine says take it back another says if the gun fires and functions good why bother. Personally it fires and doesn't seem to have any other issues. Anyone else find marks on their tubes like this?
Heat from a blow dryer or heat gun will loosen the locktite on the threads.I also had these scratches appear .......I'm getting a new Mag Tube ; but I'm wondering how hard it is to get the old scratched one off ? Any hints ??
It looks like the one that belongs in your secondary gas system, but it could be the mysterious 'seal ring' that some early guns had. Have you removed the rings to clean the piston before? What specific model do you have? Some earlier guns had an additional seal ring that you can see in the parts diagram in your manual. It shouldn't live 'on' your piston so much as 'between' the piston and the gas ports of your cylinder.
