Looks Great, Works Not So Much
While I was impressed with the quality of the product getting it to actually work as design has been a challenge. This expansion tube was supposed to add two more shells to my current tube magazine I have been unable to get it to work as designed. Instructions are very limited, better than Chinese instructions but no troubleshooting options. While the price was a little high the quality is there, now off to the gunsmith to make it work.

Oddly not 10 Round
While others had good experience for some reason mine would only allow 8 rounds to load in tube on a R-1100 Auto 12G. So I am only getting 8+1 capability. I initially tried the provided orange follower but could only get 8 shells in tube. The 9th shell goes approx halfway but thats it.. I then replaced follower with my original 1/2 inch short follower with same results. I dont know if I can get the 9th shell in later after new spring breaks in or if 8 is max. My package states its a 10 shot extension but am curious if I actually got the 8 shot extension? Its strange.

This is 7+1 NOT 8
Some things to be aware of. One is clearly written in the description. The other one is not unless the description is changed after this review is posted. The tube WILL NOT HOLD 8 Rounds. This is 7 + 1. Second the removal of the tabs in a remington 870 is not difficult. I would recommend drilling them out then deburring with a file or similar. Third only giving this 3 stars because the plastic follower is oversized relative to the tube and the misleading capacity claim. I am certain the follower is oversized as it would not easily move in this or one other test shotgun

Fits Perfect
The Bluing On This Looks Like The Tube Was Sandblasted Not Really Smoothed Out And Then Blued, Not A Bright Bluing Like On The Other Extension Tube I Bought (100-013-349WB) I Would Give It 5 Stars If The Bluing Was Bright And Not Mattie Bluing And The Tube Was Smoother.
