H&R pardner pump 20ga, shell latch issues

[Monstermark]

I've got a pardner pump having shell latch problems, when fired, the recoil causes the shell im the mag tube to become "unlatched", gunsmith said parts are "NLA" and im hosed, any thoughts?

Check Numrich e-gunparts
I'll go get my master catalog and see if I can find a cross reference to something that will work

I believe that the Pardner line is a fairly close 870 clone. I would think that most 870 parts would interchange. Maybe not barrels, but most small parts should?

This right there.^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

The Pardner Pump is a clone of a Remington 870. So close a clone that in fact most of the parts are interchangeable with no fitting. And, as I understand it, the few that don't drop in take only a little modification.

I own a 13 year old one and I have several "Remington" upgrades on it that just dropped right in.

I also believe that AZ D is correct, the only thing that is not drop in is the barrel. The Pardner has a different geometry to the barrel extension. Again, as I understand it, a Remington barrel can be used on a Pardner, but a Pardner barrel cannot be used on a Remington.

Thank you all. Much appreciated
