Winchester Model 12 loading problem? Probably not.

  • Just showing other people who are new to the Winchester model 12 shotgun, that if you think it has a loading problem it is probably just because you assume it works like most other shotguns. I learned this the hard way, I took apart the gun completely to check for wear, and found none. Luckily I didn't buy replacement parts although I have heard of people who do, and still have the same "problem". Hope this helps.

    Loading the model 12 can be tricky for newcomers with a little practice it's no problem at all mines 93 years old and shoots flawlessly one of the best shotguns ever made

    Thanks for the video. I just got my first Model 12 and had the same concern about the position of the shot shell next to be racked in. It looked to me like it was too far out of the mag tube and I was going to tear the gun down to solve a problem that was not a problem. You saved me a ton of time and frustration because taking mine apart and trying to reassemble it was an absolute nightmare, but I finally finessed the finicky gal to go back together. Your video was validated by the Larry Potterfield's Mode 12 cutaway video which is very informative too. Thanks again!

    I just bought an old Springfield 12 guage, thought it was broken because the way i had to load it and they didnt stay in the tube like my new shotguns. Just saved me from looking stupid at the gunsmith! Thank you

    Thank you for making and posting your video ! I was trying to shoot trap with one of these today, and was unable to keep the shells in the magazine. I had a feeling it was operator error, so I just loaded the chamber directly with one shell prior to each shot. I'm glad your video clearly shows the proper position of the loaded shells with respect to the elevator. Cheers !!

    This is exactly what I was looking for after I thought I had an issue with my inherited model 12. Kind of frustrating loading shells, feels a bit rough and sometimes the shells pop out that are in the tube but the gun is otherwise a joy to use. Thanks for the video. Now I can sleep easy.

    • @Stray03
      @Stray03  8 лет назад +2

      +Yani M After a while you will get used to loading it and you won't have them popping out anymore. Also you can check the mag tube for dirt or corrosion if it feels rough, then clean and lightly oil it so the follower slides freely. Thanks for watching.

    No problem. One of the things I love about the "original" pumps, you find all sorts of things that have been phased out for so long that people used to the modern stuff would never expect. The 97 and 12 pull forward, the remington 10's flapper assembly and striker, and the slam firing ability of a few of them, all interesting and original features/ideas that the stuff today doesn't even hint at.

      +Hamlin_ sweganator Model 12 and a few guns like the one made by CIL are the only ones loaded this way. Interesting, but for most of us who are used to the catches, it feels "broken". Once you get used to it though it is actually a good system.

    Just pulled out my Mod 12 and I was thinking something is wrong. I figured the catch was worn due to its age. I also noticed that when you cycle a round into the chamber and fire ( i have snap caps) I have to pull forward just a bit after I pull the trigger for the pump to pull back down to cycle another round.

    • @jurgenstroda6338

  • @sonnygunz9207
    @sonnygunz9207 6 лет назад

    I love my model 12 but unloading is a bit awkward till you get used to it. I prefer the model 1897’s loading and unloading procedure. It’s a lot like 870’s, 1200/1300 and 500/590’s. Your M12 looks to be in beautiful shape. Mine is solid but most of the blueing is gone. It’s sporting a chopped 18.75” barrel. I used the Brownells bead kit to thread and tap the barrel and add a large 6-48 brass bead.

    • @Stray03
      @Stray03  10 лет назад

      Yeah my first was a Mossberg 500 so I assumed that the catch in the mag tube wasn't doing its job. When I figured it out I figured I'd make a video for others in my situation. I personally love the early repeating shotguns, Looking to finish collecting them, but so far I'm running a win 97, win 1901, rem 10, winchester model 12, a couple of ithacas and a rem model 31. All fun to shoot, and all with interesting mechanics to them.

  • @elliotkramer7511
    @elliotkramer7511 5 лет назад

    I thought I had this exact problem but it turns out I had the 3 shot adapter plug in the magazine tube in the wrong end of the spring. I put the plug into the spring on the end of the magazine that was closest to where the shells go. It should have been placed into the spring on the end of the magazine tube near the end of the magazine tube where the screw is, not near where the shells load in. If you reference the users manual for the gun it shows a picture of this. After talking to several authorized Winchester gun smiths they all agreed that all shells should lock into place when you feed them into the tube. Hope that helps anyone with the same problem.

  • @rupertblanche2254
    @rupertblanche2254 3 года назад

  • @rebelrobz
    @rebelrobz 11 лет назад +1

    Stray, yep, that is correct. I found it on AR15 forums last night. I verified it with my second Mod 12 also.
    Pulled this from the forum. See below. Thx for help.
    Another thing, if you dry fire it, and it is impossible to "rack" the slide back to cock the gun, this is normal. You have to push forward on the slide handle to "unlock" it so it can be pumped to the rear to cock the action and chamber a shell. The recoil of a fired shell does this automatically.

  • @sonnygunz9207

  • @rock612on

    • @Stray03
      @Stray03  10 лет назад

      I find it would take away from the model 12 if you could, best to buy a model that does than to modify a nice rifle in the hopes that it will be easier. Enough practice and you won't have any problems loading her.

  • @birdienfool
    @birdienfool 7 лет назад

    One other question: Being very unfamiliar with shotguns and maintenance practices, I believe after shooting it I need to do some kind of oiling or other maintenance because it probably wont be fired for quite some time again. What do you suggest?

    • @Stray03
      @Stray03  7 лет назад

      Not that much, light cleaning and oiling if you are putting it away for a while, just to make sure nothing gives humidity a place to sit on te steel causing some surface rust. handling it can leave oils from your hands on steel which can also cause rusting so just wipe off all handling areas. Usually with new ammo you don't have to worry about cleaning too deeply unless you fires a few boxes of ammo through her or used it on a rainy or humid day.

  • @The762x39mm
    @The762x39mm 7 лет назад +3

    You dont need to cycle the action to unload magazine on Remington or Mossberg shotgun. Thoses are unloaded by pressing the cartridge stop with finger,allowing shells to pop out of the magazine.

    • @Stray03
      @Stray03  7 лет назад

      Mossberg I'm able to do it but I have to clear the lifter and only one comes out at a time, the remington, tends to catch on the second catch, so the bolt has to be moved to get it to release. ( but you may know the trick that I don't.)

    • @The762x39mm
      @The762x39mm 7 лет назад

      Indeed on the Mossberg,shell will only pop 1 at a time and yes the action must be closed to bring the lifter out of the way. I still prefer the Mossberg because nothing get in the way when loading the magazine,particulary usefull if you wear gloves. All that said, i wouldnt mind a model 12 in my collection.

    • @Stray03
      @Stray03  7 лет назад +1

      Don't get me wrong I like my mossbergs and my 870's but there is something about the early repeaters that makes them interesting. 500's and 870's just incorporate the best ideas from those firearms.

  • @Sputtercunt

  • @kaiviernes1112
    @kaiviernes1112 9 лет назад

    Okay, so you mentioned what my problem is in your video, but you didn't actually talk about it. I have a model 13.
    Basically, the catching mech isn't actually catching the shells, so when I try to load one, the other attempts to come out with it. This prevents me from bringing the forend forward to load the first shell. I took the whole bloody thing apart countless times, and the only progress I've made was discovering that when the forend comes back, the catch goes down, and stays down.
    Do you know how to fix this? Any help would be beyond appreciated, and I'd like to avoid taking my gun to a gunsmith if I can.

      Im thinking you have an issue wth the piece that holds the next shell in the tube when you cycle the action. Give her a good clean, if it continues then check the piece for wear, damage or improper installation. From there inspect the bolt where it interacts with that piece.

      You'll enjoy it. Also just be warned the model 12 like the model 97 and the ithaca 37 don't have disconnectors. Holding the trigger back and pumping the gun closed will fire it.

    • @870Slager
      @870Slager 7 лет назад

    • @Stray03
      @Stray03  7 лет назад +1

      Yeah it is fun to play with, and unless you have an 8 round ithaca it is the "slam firing capable" shotgun with the most rounds that go in it. My 97 only holds 5 in the tube IIRC and the ithaca 4.

      Model 12 and 1200 are two different beasts, 1200s come apart like modern shotguns (870, 500) where as the model 12 works like the 97s and other early shotguns.

      Migratory bird hunting set up. They put a dowel in the tube. That is probably what is moving around.

    It makes it easy to empty the mag without needing to cycle the action. The Model 12 isn't as idiot friendly as modern pumps. The slide release on the back of the trigger guard and the safety on the front is how all pump action guns should be. The 2nd thing I noticed about my M12 is how natural it is to take the safety off as you shoulder the gun. The 1st thing I noticed is how much better this gun naturally points than a 870 or 500 with the same LOP. Having the safety at the front of the trigger guard might be a little easier to have the safety come off by accident vs in the back.. Don't rely on a safety, or hang around people who do.

      +John H Good advice, I don't keep my gun loaded unless i'm about to shoot, or if I'm hunting small game. I never count on the safety, and regardless of if it is on or not, I will keep the hollow end of the gun pointed in a safe direction lol.

      +Stray03 i actually bought a model 12-20 gauge today. One of the owners had soldered a silver dime to the safety for easy disengagement with gloves. It had also come with a polychoke which is pretty cool. Can't wait to shoot it.

      Well that's a relief. But why does your first shell stick forward like that though? I can't seem to find any other info on it.

    • @Stray03
      @Stray03  7 лет назад +1

      It is catching on the first part of the protrusion from the bolt which it can do but not going to stay there, The first one due to lower spring pressure sticks but can be jarred loose,if second round is put in it will slip over it and sit where it is supposed to sit.

    • @donutdebacle3614
      @donutdebacle3614 7 лет назад

      Ah, that makes sense. I just picked up a 1927 solid rib M12 and assumed they would all do that. Thanks for the help, you seem to know your stuff!

    • @Stray03
      @Stray03  7 лет назад +1

      You can still find the manual for these shotguns on certain websites, in the loading section it shows the proper placement of the rounds. Mine just catches the first round if I place it in just the right way. Afterwards the spring pressure gets too heavy for it to hold.

    Now let me tell you something funny. I've had a model 12 for YEARS... I have NEVER noticed this until recently. I researched what the problem might be... No problem, I've just been using it properly for the last oohhhh 20 years.

    • @Stray03
      @Stray03  6 лет назад

      Lol. Yeah I believe it i think when people come from models like the 870 and 500 that they tend to have more issues with these. If you started on one or been using the older shotguns it is just "normal".

    @skigdividerx4991 5 лет назад

    The notch on the bottom of the bolt holds the next round until you cycle the action. The model 12 is a poor design. Everybody thinks just because a gun says Winchester or Remington on it it's a great gun. A Ithaca model 37 or Stevens 520-620 or J.C. Higgins model 20 are all far superior to the Model 12.

      @Stray03  8 лет назад

      Yes it probably was I don't use the safety unless hunting with a chambered round, although I find it funny you noticed that and not the gun never having a live round in the chamber. Safeties are never to be trusted, and they only really matter on a chambered round.
