My buddy has one. Told me he hunted with it the other day and it kept jamming on him. Said he could only get off one shot everytime. This was only 3rd time he hunted with it. Pretty sweet gun though.

I don't know. He said at first that morning it was shooting fine then it would only shoot one shot. I guess something with the magazine. It was brand new and u should clean off the packing grease. He might not have done that.

I did clean off the packing grease...but I used winchester gun oil which is very thick...I took it back home degreased her and put rem oil on which is lighter and did not have any problems til this year. I'm thinking I may have some issues with Kent shells...My gun shot fine the other day...I don't know??

I think cheaper shells that u might take out box and put in bottom of your hunting bag or whatever might get moisture and maybe swell a little. I dont know though. Just my opinion.

I hunted with a guy this year that hunts with an 870 and he couldn't eject the kent shells out and he said its b/c they swell. Man he was fighting that gun hard too to get the shell out! LOL!
