How do you take out a loading magazine in a sears ted Williams 75 20 gauge?

I think that you are asking how to unload the shotgun. I don't believe that the magazine can easily be removed. You will have to "cycle the action" to empty the gun. In a safe area with the gun pointed in a safe direction, you will pull back on the lever that sticks out of the right side of the gun and eject the UNFIRED shell. Let go of the lever so that the action closes and a fresh round is chambered. Pull back on the lever again to eject the fresh round. Repeat as many times as necessary to empty the gun. Keep you finger away from the trigger (which is the small lever inside the metal circle sticking straight down).


What does police his brass mean?

When you fire most guns, the gun will eject the brass cartridge the holds the bullet, gun powder, and primer. The firing pin of the gun hits the primer at the base of the cartridge, which ignites the gun powder and fires the bullet. As the explosion occurs and the bullet leaves the barrel of gun, the mechanism of the gun uses the explosion's energy to eject the now empty brass cartridge.'Policing the brass' means to pick up the spent cartridges after your done firing.


Springfield 410 shotgun model 944 that will not eject the empty shell after it is shot what parts are needed to order to fix it?

That is hard to troubleshoot without seeing the gun. Try removing the foreend and dismounting the barrel from the receiver. Look at the ejector rod where it contacts the receiver and where it is pushed when the action is opened. You may well see what the problem is. You option is to take the gun to a gunsmith for inspection and/or repair.

Many types. First, muzzle loaders do not use cartridge casings. Only autoloading firearms automatically eject a fired casing.

How do you remove an unfired shell from the chamber of a Winchester model 1200?

With the gun pointed in a safe direction, safety ON and your finger OUTSIDE the trigger guard, press the disconnector (to the left of and to the rear of the trigger) Pull the forearm to the rear. The chambered shell should extract and eject. If there are more shells in the magazine, they will load into the chamber when the forearm is moved forward. You will need to repeat until gun is empty. Now- go contact Winchester Customer Service through their website, download and PRINT the user's manual- which gives instruction on this)
