1300 Defender magazine spring

[deChelca]

I have a 1300 Defender that saw two previous owners. When I got it, it was obvious it had not been maintained properly at all. I took it apart, cleaned it all up, and it works mostly fine.

The problem lies in the magazine spring. It's really rough and tight, not smooth at all (but it feeds great!) I want to replace it, because it's obviously not working properly.

I can't find anything from a reputable dealer anywhere. Sure there's eBay, but only god knows what I'd actually receive.

Anybody know where I can find a Winchester 1300 Defender magazine spring?

Thanks,
John
