Winchester 1907 10 shot magazine take down


Recommended Posts

I have an original Winchester 1907 10 shot magazine. Does anyone know how to take one apart for cleaning? This is the only forum where the rifle is discussed so I hope someone can help me out. I know how to take apart the aftermarket mags but not the originals.

 

Thanks in advance!

Hi Kevin,

The 10 shot 351 mag is disassembled much like the 1911 45 is disassembled.

You depress the follower until its almost below one of the holes. Then you place a nail thru the hole beneath the follower and above the spring.

Then ,using a small screw driver and needle nose plyers, you remove the follower.

then carefully remove the spring.

A nice book is available on the 07 by Leonard Speckin. ph # 517 881 9028

Your welcome,

Jim C

Yeah Leonard's book has some cool ideas for simple tools to make disassembly of the magazine and the gun much simpler. I bought all the supplies but did not make the tools yet. Too many other irons to start working on the 07 projects that I have.

I dropped my mags for the 07 in the ultrasonic. Then oiled good after. Unless it is damaged or broken, I would not take it apart, old parts can be finicky.
