Top Lever Spring for 1882 Remington

Post by Jack71 »

Does anyone know if the lever spring from an 1889 model Remington will work on the 1882 model?

I withdraw the question - I just found out the answer is "yes." At least the one I got on ebay fits my 12-gauge 1882. It's possible that the 10-gauge gun might need a larger spring due to the wider frame.
It was a relatively easy job, I'd never taken the stock off of a Remington hammer gun before.

Ah, hammerguns - no safety to mess with when putting the stock back on. Makes life easier.
