completely within the magazine (Figure 9).
Important: Be certain that the split end of
the magazine plug is rearward.
TO REMOVE THE PLUG first remove the trig-
ger group (see pages 23 and 24). Then take an
empty shotshell and place the mouth of the
shell against the magazine follower (Figure 10).
Thumb this empty shell far enough into
the magazine to place a second empty shell
behind the first. Then press the second empty
shell into the magazine (Figure
11).
Some
pressure with the thumb will be required,
since it causes the split rearward end of the
magazine plug to compress and emerge
through the hole in the magazine follower and
into the inside of the first empty shell. Ease
the shells rearward and out of the magazine.
You will now see the plug protruding from
the follower. Simply pull the plug from the
magazine follower (Figure 9). Now reinstall
the trigger group.
CAPACITY
With the plug removed your 2000 has a
capacity of five
2 3/4"
shells. When it is set up
to fire 3" magnum shells with a 3" magnum
barrel, the capacity is four 3" shells.
