    Post Franchi 48 Aux shell latch and shell latch installation? Need Picture

    Shotgun is in safe at LGS. It had been coated. Unfortunate when I told the guns owner to take picture prior to taking it apart that suggestion was forgotten. So yesterday I take on the task to assemble all the little parts in the sandwich bag.

    The last 3 remaining parts are the shell latches. Do any of you have a picture of how they set in the receiver?
    I need a actual picture & not a parts list.
    You can shoot me a pm.

    Thanks Bill

    This is all I've got. I hope it helps. It's from GunDigest guide to Shotguns.

    Thanks TBG!

    I finally figured it out yesterday. I had a good idea how they laid in. Cept' even with a slave pin my fingers didn't want to cooperate.

    I'll tell ya, don't take those 3 parts out unless they are broken.

    I've had to put those puzzles together myself.
    Someone will bring you a gun "kit" in a shoe box.
    If all of the parts are present, it's a challenge. If something is missing, it's a bit more than a challenge.

    Good Job
