EASSEMBLY

1. Insert the follower with the rounded edge to the front

of the magazine.

2. Insert the spring assembly.

3. Place the floorplate catch on the spring. Make sure the

rounded edge of the floorplate catch is to the front.

4. Compress the spring until the floorplate catch is flush

with the bottom of the tube.

5. Hold the floorplate catch down inside the magazine

with one hand while you slide the floorplate onto

the rails, starting the floorplate at the front of the

magazine body and sliding it rearward, until the

floorplate catch snaps into position. The shape of the

floorplate corresponds to the shape of the floorplate

catch and the shape of the bottom of the magazine

body, rounded edges to the front, flat edges to the rear.

A slight tap on the forward curved surface of the floor

plate may be necessary to seat the catch into position.

6. The magazine is now ready for use.

UESTIONS

If your Winchester rifle or shotgun should ever need service

or repair, it is often best to utilize one of our Authorized

Service Centers. In some cases it is appropriate to use the

Winchester Rifles and Shotguns Service Center in

Arnold, Missouri. A list of Authorized Service Centers

was included with your new firearm. If you need a new

listing, contact us. We can help you determine the best

place to service your firearm.

In order to avoid delays, it is important to never send your

gun directly to our facility without direct authorization

from one of our service specialists. This avoids possible

delays in obtaining service. Contact us at (800) 322-4626

for details on how to receive service before sending

your gun.

Parts listings, Service Center lists, service procedures,

service/repair form and general product information are

also found on the Web at: www.winchesterguns.com.

When returning your firearm for servicing, you must do

the following:

1. Be sure it is completely unloaded.

2. Remove the scope or other optics.

3. Package it securely in a cardboard container.

4. Enclose a letter with your firearm that clearly describes

the trouble experienced, the ammunition used and the

repairs desired. Also include your name and a daytime

phone number where you can be reached.

5. If convenient, send a copy of the letter to us separately.

6. Never return ammunition with your firearm. It is

against postal and most commerce regulations.
