first look for dents in the tube all the way down,any dents will cause it to stick of course and are very common on these.try penetrating fluid on it ,but be warned, blueing is just rust,some will remove the blueing.Heat is the way to go if possible,just slowly apply heat with propane torch up and down tube ,do it slowly and evenly and it wont hurt blueing.Whole tube can be removed if needs be by driving out cross pin thats located @ where your arrow is pointing ,but be very carefull not to mess up dovetail in barrel .You'll have to use support under front bracket.To remove dents in tube,slide a rod inside as close to inside diameter as possible ,that has a gently tapered end on it.when it reaches dent tap it in lightly ,tap around the tube GENTLY and the tap end of rod again slowly working it through.if you take your time you can work nearly every dent out.Save the tube if possible,it can be replaced,but it will never look right or match the rest of gun. If its just stuck with rust pliers are not going to hurt,its already messed up! After you get magazine tube out and get it working and sliding in and out correctly, then fix end. file it smooth as it takes with a good file,to remove marks from plier jaws.Once its fairly cleaned up, recut knurling with either a triangle needle file or a metal checkering file.DONT reblue,or use a good cold blue. Again it wont match.but cold blue will wear off fairly quickly so it wont be as noticable. SIMPLE HUH?better yet, take it to a gunsmith that does restorations .LOL
