Auto-5 & Model 11 springs

[DeepSouth]

I have an old Remington Model 11 (16Ga.) that has developed some "increased recoil" and has recently started to have some feeding problems. So I was going to just go through it and replace the old springs (probably original) and see if it helped. Well, I went to Brownells and could not find any thing for a Model 11 but I did find Browning Auto-5 springs. While I *think* they would all be the same I was wanting some verification.

This is what I found

Thanks in Advanced

Numrich has the spring you need. However, your problem may not be the spring, the friction pieces wear on these guns and sometimes need replaced. Also make sure they are installed correctly for the loads you are using.

Here is how they should go.

The springs and the friction pieces are the same gauge for gauge.
Be sure to replace both the action and recoil springs. The friction pieces at the same time is a good idea.
