Great Tool
Great tool. Easy to use. Follow the directions which ask you to oil the inside of the tube and the tool. I tapped it in gently and used a brass hammer to softly tap the outside of the magazine tube directly where the dimples were. They flattened out easily and now cause no problems.

Yes, I would recommend to a friend
Dent remover works.
Had a Winchester Model 12 with a dented mag tube. Used a hammer and the dent remover as a mandril and the tube smoothed right out. No more stuck follower.
Mag Dent Raiser
The rod that gets attached to the main head gives you extra length, not only the dimple near the mag cap, but perhaps deeper down the mag tube.
Works perfect for Winchester SXP defender
This worked out perfect for my Winchester SXP defender, solid steel construction, heavy and stout. Banged it through the magazine tube the first time, would’ve been just fine, but ran it through a couple more times just in case. Worked perfect.
Awesome stout dent raiser
Took a bit to send out but arrived quickly after notification and packaged well. Simple dumbed down instructions included. It's of good construction, definately has weight to it and the extention rod is awesome for other shotguns that might have dents or dimples lower in the magtube. Only wish it came with a collar to wrap around tube like what defender tactical offers which removes the need to hammer out anything the protrudes from using this detent. Awesome product no less.
Great tool!!
It worked perfectly, and is high quality, so I know I’ll have it for years. Sure, I could have made this on my machines. That being said, when you consider time involved and current steel prices this purchase is an easy choice.
Nice tool
Was looking around for options on how to remove the factory detents on my Remington 870 and Tac-14 shotguns. After watching a Youtube video that recommended this product, decided to give it a shot. Definitely a bit expensive for what it is, but having 3 shotguns to use it on, it was worth it to me. Definitely requires some elbow grease to remove from the magazine tube once its inserted, but with a little gun oil it wasnt too bad. The detents were successfully pushed out after two insertions on each shotgun and did not experience any collateral damage that some of the other reviewers mentioned.
Great tool.
Watched a couple of YouTube videos on how to. For the most part did what they said and it was very easy to use. The notch on the handle part was perfect for a crescent wrench to turn it to the slots while in the magazine tube and it slid right out. Removed the dents pretty good from my Remington 870 12GA Home Defense. I had to file just a little from the dents inside the tube to smooth it out and it came out well. Price could be a little better but overall great little product.
Well worth the money to repair shotgun
Straightened a small dent in the magazine tube perfectly. Keep it oiled and move slowly.
Very helpful
Made installing my Wilson combat plus 2 on my Remington 870 a breeze. Definitely helps to have the right tool for the job.
