Troubleshoot your shotgun well before the hunting season

The recoil spring may be overlooked when troubleshooting problems. In this case, sharp edges on the spring of a new gun proved to be the problem. Be careful when using a file as cutting into the next coil can weaken the spring. Inserting something between the coils can give a bit more room to work. (Photo by John Tertuliani)

Slicking up the action made a difference I could feel. But the gun failed on the third trip as if nothing had changed. More than a little surprised, I was ready to trade it in. I contacted the manufacturer. As expected, under warranty, simply ship it back.
