Hello,

I am trying to remove the forend of my Winchester model 12 shotgun. I think I need a special wrench to do this? Does anyone know where I could get this wrench? Or does anyone have any other suggestions for removing this?

Thanks!
Evan
 
I have done this with a hammer and punch or a screw driver without any damage. put a piece of material or a rag over the end of the screw driver and tap it around with the hammer, once it's loosened it will unscrew with your hands.
That's how i have done it.
 
Good idea! That got that piece off but now i am stuck again. I can see that I just need to remove the forend from the peice that slides on the tube magazine, but it doesn't want tot budge either. Did this just take some tapping with a hammer as well?
 
I played with it a bit and it is stuck! I managed to get it to move out about a half inch but no more. I've tried tapping it with a screwdriver and that doesn't work either. Any ideas?
 
Got it! There was a little bit of a lib it was having trouble getting past, once I worked it over that lip it pulled right off! The metal is pretty rusty, I may work on it a bit before putting the stock back on since i am planning on reblueing all the metal on the gun anyways.
