Abstract
A magazine isolator is provided for a shutgun having a pump action of conventional type, including sliding linkage, operable sequentially from a battery position through an eject position and loading sequence back to the battery position. The magazine isolator has a selector adapted to the tubular magazine of the shotgun. The selector is movable between a single shot position and a repeat position. A stop surface is fixed to the sliding linkage of the pump action for contact with a shoulder associated with the selector. Upon positioning the selector in the single shot position, the shoulder is positioned for contact with the stop surface to inhibit the pump action from operating past the eject position. A spring loaded detent arrangement is adapted to selectively latch the selector in either the repeat or single position.
