Browning sent me a 9”+ long magazine plug. It doesn’t allow me to load shells. How long should the 3 shot plug be?
Thanks

The plug in my Maxus is 5 and 3/4 inches. Pretty universal size for plugs. Same as my 1100 plug.

Thanks. I just saw on brownings website that it takes a turnkey plug. Browning sent me the plug for free with a hat and decals so it’s hard to complain. But I’m sure they didn’t send the right plug.

Forgot about the turn key issue. That’s what I have. Not sure if a dowel style plug would work.

Four and a half inches.
You have a magazine capacity of 4 shells. You want to reduce that to 2 shells, so you need a plug that is the same length as two 2 3/4" shells. That would be 4 1/2".

I have a browning gold 3 1/2 gun, dug it out of the safe and measured the plug 5 and 3/4 inches. Wally don't cut your plug too Short The first Time...

Good advice.

But, 1/2" wooden dowels are cheap. You can always cut another one.....
Keep in mind, the difference between two 3" shells and two 3 1/2" shells is...........one inch. That may be why 5 stand's plug is slightly more than 1" longer than needed for a 2 3/4" or 3" gun. Which gun is yours, Wally??

Thanks for all the wisdom. The correct answer is 4 and 7/8”. Not sure why browning sent a 9” plug. Anyways, thanks again
