I just bought a Winchester 1911 (model 11) that has a cracked forearm. While I have no intentions of shooting this shotgun, I would like to repair the forearm. Would someone please advise me on how to break this shotgun down? If possible send me a PDF file or e mail with breakdown instructions. Thanks.

  diamodpete,
  
  I have read of many people, gunsmiths included, who repair a crack with CRAZY GLUE, and clamp it together with SURGICAL TUBING. ...that is, if all you have is a crack, and you are not missing pieces, or need to do a major repair.
  
  Breakdown is for someone else to help you with.
  
  Good luck![;)]

  This type repair won't work unless I can get the forearm off the barrel/magazine. Break expands upward and forearm will have to come off in order to put downward pressure on the break. Thanks for responding.
