Love the look and function of the new pistol grip stock. However, I am not sure about the Nordic spring. It seems to me the factory Mossberg spring is a little more heavy duty.
I cut the spring and turned in the edges. The spring stuck out of the magazine tube about 16"(32.5" total spring length). I did a function test(with dummy rounds)and a couple times the shell would just stay flush with tube and not feed. Although it could possibly be I hesitated when racking the action.
I switched back to the factory spring(which has an awesome taper on the follower end)and everything works just fine. The spring is a lot shorter. I didn't measure, but I think it probably only stuck out of the tube about 5" or so. Does anyone think this isn't ok? I'm going to try and get to the range this weekend and test. It just seems so much shorter, and Nordic instructions say minimum spring at end of tube should be 12". Idk, if it works...
I also had bought an extension tube barrel clamp, but I don't think it will work. The cut out in the tube for the clamp is right where the sight is. Is it ok not to use a clamp with a 2 round extension?
