Yippee! I knew you could do it. Lloyd, was it rusted together or what?

It's a Maine gun, so yes, rust! Not so bad as to cause major corrosion, it just wouldn't come apart. I doubt if it's ever been apart.

Does anyone know the length of a factory wooden magazine plug for a 17?

Two cartridges lengths or 6 inches, what ever comes first.

Is that the same diameter as the ones used in the 16/20 M37s? What I've got seems a bit tight.

Since I was going to use this 17 for the dove opener, I figured I might be able to do a little better than a sawed-off piece of dowell in the gun.
