I have a rifle with a 7 shot clip that jams when loaded with 7 rounds but is fine with 6 is it a bad clip?

Question

problem or something else? I think that it is a Remington model 597

Answer 1

Remingtons are nice guns.

I have two.

So probably a bad clip.

Answer 2

lots of guns do that ,when you put the last bullet in the spring is so compressed it puts to much pressure on the receiver and causes a jam.try over compress the spring ,and work the spring maybe the spring will lose some of its strength and stop jamming. Its not a bad idea to get another clip ,i like to carry a extra just in case.

Answer 3

Bad magazine spring, not always bad magazine.
