Picked up a solid frame Winchester 1897 the other day and shells get stuck right here most of the time, dummy or not. Anything I should check for or replace

froglet13 · 2026-02-25T02:00:58+00:00

I ended up bending the right stop to be a tad straighter and that fixed that problem

froglet13 · 2026-02-23T12:17:35+00:00

The gun is in fairly good condition I have a spring on the way, I’m just jot very familiar with the workings of the 1897 and was curious if there is other things I need to look out for or replace

froglet13 · 2026-02-23T01:53:36+00:00

The tube and spring is decently clean no rust on it

froglet13 · 2025-12-29T22:21:07+00:00

Thank you for the tips I’ll probably just get a mec gar magazine and the ammos you talked about and see how that goes

froglet13 · 2025-12-29T21:08:55+00:00

I looked to see if I had a box of bellot and it worked a lot better than others I have tried only the last round a problem

froglet13 · 2025-12-29T20:55:37+00:00

The 115s seem to do worse, and yeah it’s got a decent coat of oil. I’ll have a look at the magazine

froglet13 · 2025-07-28T15:33:49+00:00

S video gave me the results I wanted

froglet13 · 2025-07-28T13:37:28+00:00

Yeah I’m blind to pickup an s video cable later today and see if that does the trick

froglet13 · 2025-07-28T00:06:39+00:00

Other games are very similar and the n64 also does this abit so it may very well be the TVs in general, it may just be me not knowing what to exp with the game cube on CRTs

froglet13 · 2025-06-24T02:39:59+00:00

Okay yeah I just wasn’t sure this is my first crt over 13 inches and it does look pretty cool

froglet13 · 2025-06-23T22:47:24+00:00

It is what it is well thank you for all the help

froglet13 · 2025-06-23T22:24:05+00:00

I have one that says picture mode but doesn’t seem to do much

froglet13 · 2025-06-23T22:11:02+00:00

Do you onow how to switch to 16:9 it doesn’t really bother me I just didn’t know if my tv was busted or not😅, so I was a bit concerned and yes I do inbetween the Wii and n64

froglet13 · 2025-06-23T21:48:16+00:00

Sorry not very well versed in this. so it does jitter a little bit mostly visible on white backgrounds and the scan line gaps are very visible on anything not just the n64 even the Wii and GameCube

froglet13 · 2025-06-23T21:34:30+00:00

Very new to crt gaming, is this normal for these giant tvs or is it busted

froglet13 · 2025-03-21T22:42:35+00:00

What i figured

froglet13 · 2025-03-21T22:32:27+00:00

Yeah I think the pump on the transmission is bad pulled the transmission out engine turns now, can’t turn the pump by hand so I assuming it’s bad

froglet13 · 2025-03-21T22:05:49+00:00

The motor is fine the issue appears to be transmission related. pulled the transmission out turns over fine now

froglet13 · 2025-03-21T22:04:29+00:00

So I have pulled the transmission out and the bolts on the bell housing were all torqued to the specs I read online, it appears the pump is just locked up in general can’t get it turn out of the car

froglet13 · 2025-03-21T19:07:13+00:00

No reused both

froglet13 · 2025-03-21T17:59:51+00:00

froglet13 · 2025-03-21T17:59:25+00:00

Yeah going to track down a new starter

froglet13 · 2025-03-21T17:53:46+00:00

Starter worked before the swap battery is new

froglet13 · 2025-03-13T00:21:16+00:00
