Winchester 1897 action slide

[tatou]

Not sure on the slides, but take down model mag tubes have an extra hole on the muzzle end for the take down lever. Mag tubes for solid frame guns (WW1) did not have it. See the thread in the below link....

Shotgunworld.com Real of Fake? Know anything about Winchester 97 Trench Guns?

Thanks that helps. I kinda thought the take down had 3 holes but i wasn't sure.
My solid frame tube only has 2 holes but some genius used a pipe wrench to remove it... leaving deep scars in it and splitting the weld seam.
