Dosen't seem to matter what brand or size I use. The elevator also flips up and stays up instead of the constant tension I think it is supposed to have. I'm wondering if the carrier dog spring is sticking or faulty.
Hey gang, I have had no end of trouble with an 870 Express I purchased. It appears that the shell carrier doesnt move out of the shells way when I try to eject a shell by pressing the shell eject hatch down. The shell is released, but then bumps into the carrier (Or elevator)....Any ideas...
I know this sounds a little crazy (At least to me it does), but I tried on a friends leather bomber jacket recently and was impressed by how warm it was. It made me wonder if anyone hunts in leather? Especially if you are stationary for a while (Stand, etc.).
Hey gang, my family and I are considering moving to Thurmont. I have been there many time to go to Cunningham Falls Park, Catoctin Mountain Park etc. I have been asking friends in Frederick about what the county is like and have received mostly positive feedback. I do however hear often about...
Hey gang, I have a used LB7 that I recently bought that cleaned up really nice. The lock works fine and the blade sharpened well. I have read however that the particular lock (To metal fins which act as the spring mechanism) I have on mine is prone to failure. I have read that there are mods...

Thanks.
I've watched a bunch of reassembly vids, now maybe some actual shooting vids. With my initial issues I had I may be a little quick to call foul. Thanks for the reassuring replies.
My Browning (What I'm used to) is different. So, the slide release is there to pull a round out f the chamber without firing only? Thanks for the reply by the way.
Hey gang, I bought an 870 Express Shotgun (20 gauge) over the holidays and it had issues from the beginning. It dropped shells out of the magazine when the slide was pulled back. The carrier was not moving far enough up for shells to easily get into the tube and reassembly has been a bear...
