Winchester 120 Ranger 12 ga

Hey guys, I kind of know what I need to do, but I purchased this gun, and to keep in line with the law, I bought a plug for the shell chamber, but it still accepts 3 shells. Is this a freak gun, I am going to go buy a wooden dowel and cut it to the proper length. Am I nuts or what.

On a pump, there are no maximum shell laws unless you are going hunting, then its 2+1 like you said.

Pump action shell cap. only matters while hunting.

This I know, my question is it is a standard plug for hunting, but it still allows 3 shells in the chamber instead of 2. Is the chamber larger than most other shotguns? That was my question.

How many shells will it hold when the entire plug is removed?

From what I remember on this gun with no plug it would hold four shells in the magazine with one also in the chamber.

I'm not sure of the correct plug length ,Is it possible you have the wrong size plug?

That was my question, are all plugs standard size and does the 120 need a special one? I plugged it with a wooden dowel for now,

you did right. Make sure you can not put more then two shells in the Magazine, then one in the chamber. The dowel can be removed if ever needed.

 

I had my first check last year. It had been so long since i had put the dowel into my old sweet 16 that I honestly did not know what the CO would find, and I told her so. She was hot and i was hoping she would frisk me.
