I don't know whether to post this here or in the hunting shotgun forum. I feel like it belongs in either.
I have recently bought a Winchester 1300 and have purchased a Tac Star side saddle for it. The problem is that because my 1300 has a 'field grade' pump handle on it (that comes back and covers part of the receiver on the backstroke) I can't load the firearm with the side saddle installed. The pump handle hits the side saddle.
I have bought an ATI pump forend to fit to it that will stop this problem, but it requires the tube that slides over the magazine to be a 6 1/4 inch tube, where mine is only 4 inches or so. I can't mount the new pump handle because I can't put the nut on the end of it.
To fix this I need this exact piece:

Does anybody have any idea where I might find this in Canada, or barring that, how on earth I can import this? MGW doesn't ship outside the USA. Will Irunguns or Prophet River deal with these kinds of things without charging me 2x what the part is worth?
Thanks.
EDIT: For reference, this is the one I have on the gun currently (I believe the pictures are identical, but the description is not)
