yep...5 to 6 times last year I pulled up on ducks and pulled the trigger and "click"...the firing pin never hit the primer on the shell...called a local gunsmith and he said to send it to browning...love the feel of the gun and everything. Hope they can fix it or whatever, but I've since read some good and some bad on Browning repair center so we shall see!

My SBE II did the exact same thing last year. I still haven't brought it to a gunsmith yet. I just switched to my 3" Benelli M1 auto, but Benelli's have this spring in the stock you are supposed to take out and clean once a year or so. Been having it for about 4-5 years without doing it so I'm think I am just gonna have to replace that spring and it should be fine. My 3" did the same thing to me a long time ago on a turkey. Called in 2 big toms for me and a buddy. My gun goes click, his goes boom. Mine runs off and his hits the ground with 4 beards! Almost wrapped it around a tree. I went to Lafayette Shooters and special ordered a crack barrel 10 gauge with a Xtra Full choke so that can never happen to me again. It just kicks a little. lol
