hey there folks, Hope all is well. Question Does anybody know or can compare shell lifters in the 583 bolt gun series … I have a 16ga. that needs a shell lifter-I've found 20 and 12 gauge models and cannot verify other than the 20 gauge appears different but the pivot looks same.... Can anybody advise as to the interchange of the lifters or what their differences are ? Looking at the shells all side by side there really isn't that big of a difference length wise but the 12ga is a chubby one...
Some of these ride in a "magazine" box--mine does not-only picks up shells from the short tube mag.
The model numbers are all over the place on these 583.1100/1 5837 etc... I dunno where to start other than purchasing a 12 and a 20 gauge and see what works...just don't wanna "wizz" money away...

Let me know whatcha think... SAS
