Hey guys, I got my 935 Magnum Autoloader in 2005, and I love this weapon. Never really had a problem until yesterday.. hopefully someone can help?
Ok, I was shooting out back, everything was great. I was shooting 3 in. turkey loads. The gun jammed all of a sudden - The bolt caught about halfway between being fully back or fully forward - not allowing ejection, and there was a fresh shell waiting on the elevator to be loaded. I got the fresh shell pushed back into the tube, and somehow got the spent shell out of the chamber...
So I think to myself, that was strange.. then try again. The Bolt however is not moving back enough to load another shell, and is having some trouble moving at all. I take the gun apart, and find a broken link. The link is attached to the slide, right behind the bolt - but you guys know that because your gonna help me . Anyway, I ordered a new Link ( and forearm retainer ( Why plastic? ) because that was broken somehow ) and they should be in in about a month.
Anyone heard of the link breaking? Anyone replaced one before? Is it hard to get the link pin out and back in again? Any Help or knowledge on this issue would be greatly welcome. Like I said - Im pretty sure a broken link ( How the.... ) was my problem, and I got a new one ordered..
Thanks guys, Id post a picture but its in about 8 pieces right now...
