« on: August 18, 2013, 01:33:23 PM »
My friend said his son put a shell in backwards and it is jammed,is there an easy way to get it out,he does not want to break anything so next plan is to take to gunsmith.

Yikes!  Not good.   If it is jammed in there that good I would take to a gunsmith.  This has disaster written all over it.

chamber or magazine tube?  If chamber, you should be able to take the barrel off, then use a dowel with some kind of buffer (wadded up rag) to push the shell out.  Lots of WD40 might help too.

Agree with this approach. Or use a plasic pipe so as to only push on the rim of the shell...

Take the magazine cap off ( two screws and a push rod) pull the spring and plug out. If the shell isn't free then take a plastic pipe and tap it out gently.

or give it to a gun smith who will do the same thing and charge you $50.
