re: a problem with a Winchester 1300 shotgun
Dixie you were 100% on the money. These are the black plastic hammer spring supports. I have to wait until March 1st when I get my next SSDI check before I can replace the hammer spring supports. Is the shotgun safe to fire with the damaged hammer spring supports in it? The flat part in the hole of the hammer spring supports is rounded out. That's why the hammer stop pin hardly moves. That is the only damage to the hammer spring supports. The shotgun seems to work ok with the dummy test rounds. But unless the opinion here says yes it is safe to use asis I won't use it. All the years of working around radios, tv's and the high voltages in them has taught me safety 1st.
