After mainly 3 1/2 inch shells for waterfowl and ducks. 21 yr. old SX2 started to “stove pipe” and have feed problems with 2-3/4” target loads. Noticeable difference with the new piston. I don’t know enough to understand how the piston works. However the original had two rings and the new one has one. Inspected visually the original piston could not see any visible cracks or breaks that people have reported. The new replacement fit noticeably tighter on the magazine tube. So far great with 2-3/4” 1oz and 1-1/8oz loads.

I replaced a broken piston on a Silver Hunter 12 gauge with this piston. It went in easily and fit perfectly. I'm hoping that this one lasts longer than the original part. So far, so good! Shells eject like they're supposed to now.

New Piston Assembly

More than any other part of my Winchester SX3 shotgun it is the piston assembly that gets gunked up. After a decade of rigorous duck hunting it is almost impossible to get it thoroughly clean and the gun doesn’t cycle as smoothly as it used. The price of this part is worth every penny- by replacing the piston it’s almost like having a new shotgun.

I lost mine when my gun jammed, I had to take it apart to remove the jammed shell and lost the gas piston assembly. I ordered one from midwestgunworks.com and had it delivered in 4 days. I consider this excellence service and I certainly will be doing more business with this company.

Quick shipping here saved my season. I ordered the part on a Sunday and it arrived on a Thursday. Tough to find part for a 15+ year old gun, too.

Shotgun was short stroking with 2-3/4" shells and examination showed that the spring had broken. The replacement assembly put the gun back to 100% in time for dove season.

I purchased this hoping it would help my FN SLP run 7 1/2 oz shells. It looks identical to the assembly that came with my 3 year old FN and still won't cycle these shells. Maybe with an older FN this will help with lighter loads but it didn't for me.
