Hi:
I have a 11-87 Premier 12 GA.It came to me with the bolt locked open:((.Also the place where the shells are loaded looks a bit tiny bent ((I can't get the bolt to go foward.With the bolt stuck can I still take out the trigger group? to get the bolt to go forward?.I need to get this gun ready for a friend.

Thanks
Scott Hannah

You can go ahead and drop the trigger group for inspection at this time. YOu do that by knocking out the retainer pins (2) in teh receiver. I had mine do the same thing once. Theres a little roll pin that holds that silver mag release. Mine broker and fowled everything up. Local Napa or auto shop should have one..not to mention Remington.

keep us posted
