I would contact Browning as soon as possible . I am sure they will make it rite since it is a new gun. I have always had excellent service from them .

Thats what I thought i would have to do. At first i thought i was short shucking the gun, but it did it a couple of times when i was just running the shells through it making shure to pump it fully so i know it cant be a short shucking issue.

I have a little older BPS. I have always shot mostly 3 1/2" out of mine. I was having issues with the first bullet getting jammed after firing and the gun not shucking. I would have to slam it down at the stock on the blind to get the shell to shuck. At the time I was shooting kent brand shells. I switched bullets and never had another problem (at least not a consistent one). I shoot winchester and remington now and never miss a lick.
Moral of the story is try a different brand of bullet to make sure it still does it before you go any further. |

I'll second that motion LCD, definitly try a different shell maker to see if that makes the gun operate properly.

The only shells I had problems with was remington sportsmans and estate,when I was shooting a BPS. You may also be trying to cycle the pump to fast ,I had a buddy who did that and had a similar issue.

I had that problem on an older BPS. Took it to a gun smith and he bent one of the little arms and never had a problem again. It's a known issue with some BPS's that get worn.
