In order to comply with migratory bird laws, Remington has installed a plug in your magazine. To remove it, simply unscrew the magazine cap, and I've seen two types of spring catches on Remingtons, so if it's a plastic one with a slot in it, press it in and rotate a quarter turn. If it's a C-Shaped metal ring, pull one end out with a screwdriver. Careful, as this will also release spring pressure. Tilt the shotgun forward, and the plug and your follower should drop out. Put the follower back in with the spring behind it, put back in the spring catch, and put the magazine cap back on the magazine. You should have a full capacity magazine tube now.
