This is best left to a trained gunsmith if you are haviing problems.
my balls
release gas pressure, get to the pump mechanism under the back seat, replace the pump in the mechanism
The pump is a pull-down located on the barrel, and the 12-shot loader is a cylinder integrated in the gun just past the trigger mechanism and before the barrel. I've tried dismantling it, but to no avail. the air cilinder (located on the barrel) does not seem to touch any of the springs associated with the firing/trigger mechanism. Blocked? or a missing part that fits into the air cylinder If someone can explain how the mechanism works i can see if everythings there. thank you.
$60 to $100
John Browning invented the pump shotgun in the year 1897.
Load, pump, pull trigger. Pump, pull trigger. Continue until all ammumition is fired. Load, pump, pull trigger, etc..
I have a Savage 67-E 20-gauge, and to my knowledge this is impossible. My gunsmith agrees. The best you can do is drop the back stock and trigger assembly out, then slide the pump back and take out the bolt and firing mechanism. One this is done, take out the screw at the front of the magazine tube, let it fall a little bit, then slide the pump all the way off. I don't think you can actually take just the barrel off, but stripping it as I above describes leave you with a few parts: The firing parts, the buttstock connected to the trigger assembly, the pump itself, and one large piece that is the receiver and barrel.
Are we talking about a auto-5 shotgun,or a BPS(browning pump shotgun),or a over-under shotgun(citori, or superposed)These answers would help me determine the value of your shotgun which was made in 1980.
Is it a bolt, pump or semi-auto? What are the markings on it? Serial number? Are you saying the only engraving is around the trigger? None on the receiver? Without knowing these answers, you might be in a 200-2000 price range.
No browning did not,but winchester made a ranger model pump action shotgun.
You will have to call Browning with the sn to find out.
