Super Vinci

[specktator]

Decided to test my new Super Vinci out today. Love it, except for the fact that it seems pretty tough to load my second and third shell in the magazine. Takes alot more force to get the shell all the way into magazine(till it clicks) than it should IMO. I took it apart and oiled it real good and put back together. I was shooting some pretty old shells so i found a brand new box and tried them. It is a little better but still kind of tough to get em in there. Hoping maybe it just needs to be broke in. Anyone else have this problem with theirs when they first got it?

Dude I'm telling you. If it would stay that hard, I would have a permanent bruise on my right thumb!

Mine was a little stiff but not that hard. Shoot the heaviest loads you can find at first to break in the inertia spring too. Enjoy your new gun, mine is my prized baby. House catches fire and the dog and the Vinci are comin out, everything else can burn. Hope my old lady doesn't read this.

I have 2 of them, one super sport 2 for skeet and one black eagle. Both of the guns I noticed the same thing you are talking about. It will go away the more shells you cycle. The super sport was harder to brake in but that's just my thoughts. Now I don't even think about it. Congrats on the purchase of great gun!!

Mine is not near as easy as my SBE I or II. I find it hard to get my thumb up in the slot of the Vinci due to the design of it! It's also a Lil stiff, but it's new and has not seen many rounds yet!

Put 100 round through it at skeet range today. Love it. No more issues with shells in mag. Got another issue. Can't find a sling swivel that will fit the hole on forearm to mount sling. Anyone else had this problem. I don't wanna bore out my hole with a drill but seems like I'm gonna have to.

Take good zip tie (smaller one in size)...pass thru hole and pass swivel of sling thru it....i did that to both of mine and works fine.

I bored it out with a drill bit. Got it on there.

I also shoot a Super Vinnci, I got my last year before duck season and found that the more I loaded it and shot the easier it got. Keep shooting it will break in.

Yeh that's what I did. I just kept loading and unloading it for about an hour at home. When I got to range no issues.
