Winchester 92/ El Tiger magazine fixture

[Stef_Dim]

Hi all,

My questions are about the magazine tube fit of "El Tigre" - Spanish Copy of Model 92 Winchester .44-40:

1. Is it normal to have a slight amount of play (very small movement) of the tubular magazine relative to the barrel?

2. Should the magazine tube be perfectly parallel to the barrel, or a very slight visual deviation is acceptable?

Everything seems functional, just checking what’s within normal tolerances.

Thanks!

Yeah, a little play is pretty normal, and slight misalignment isn’t uncommon. If it feeds fine and nothing feels loose, you’re probably good to go.
