I apologize if this issue has been addressed before, if so kindly point me in the right direction.
This issue was addressed tangently in this thread, but w/o resolution, I have the same issue as SoCal Choppas.
viewtopic.php?f=14&t=3668
I have an almost brand new Mossberg 930 SPX
The gun has 30 rounds total on it (one session, last night, 25 rounds 2-3/4 #8 target loads, 5 rounds 2-3/4 buck shot)
At the end of the magazine (last shot out of the magazine tube and chamber empty) the bolt locks back (as is normal), but the shell lifter lifts beyond its normal upper position and gets stuck above the far end of the bolt release lever/spring (see pictures) This prevents the bolt/receiver from closing.
This "jam" is very hard to simulate racking the gun by hand, but happens every time after the last shot.
The only way to solve it is to hold the bolt/charger handle and release tension a little and press the bolt release lever/spring back in its groove to allow the shell lifter to pass.
Obviously this would be devastating in a tactical or HD situation. This gun is specifically for HD purposes for me.
I spoke with Mossberg and sent them an email, awaiting a reply.
Anyone else have this happen before?
Easy fixes?
