Lanky Frame Posted May 24, 2019 Share Posted May 24, 2019 How many companies make six round conversions for the 97? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boggus Deal Posted May 24, 2019 Share Posted May 24, 2019 Wild Bodie Tom was the only one who made a real conversion. With his sad passing on Tuesday, I know they will be available but not sure when. Give us a couple days and I can give you a better answer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Garrison Joe Posted May 25, 2019 Share Posted May 25, 2019 I've fixed all my Chinese 97s simply by cutting the magazine spring so that it's uncompressed length is about 3 inches longer than the magazine tube. Haven't had to swap followers or use any of the 6-shell kits. If you want to cut a spring that is not the factory provided one, get a mag spring for a Remington 870 in 12 gauge. Pretty cheap item. Good luck, GJ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VICIOUS Posted May 27, 2019 Share Posted May 27, 2019 HI; I picked up a Winchester model 12 follower, put in into the 97 and clipped a few coils of the spring. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
