Hey guy's, I was wondering if any of your had any advice on a problem I've been having lately with my 870 Express Magnum. I was out shooting trap the other day and as I was shucking for a second clay, I kept getting frustrating hangups which ended up jettisoning not only an empty shell but a loaded round as well. When I was reloading between pulls I noticed that when I put the fourth shell in the magazine, it had a tendency to slip past the keeper and it would end up hung in limbo where I'd have to pull the slide back to eject both the chambered round and the one that slipped past the keeper. My friends in attendance all had essentially the same shotgun with shorter barrels and they didn't have any problems like I did. When my Ex Marine friend tried his hand at it, he had no problems at all. That said, he also cycles a pump shotgun faster than just about anyone I have ever seen! Any advice would be really appreciated.
