New 500 sometimes jams..
Hi guys/gals, first post for me... I tried a couple of searches but came up empty handed...
I recently bought a new 500 field/home defense combo package, came with the 18" door breaching barrel and a 28" field barrel...
Anyway, I took the gun out the other day and shot some light #7 shot through it.
out of 5 rounds I would have at least on time where the pump action would really hang up, to the point that I would grab the forearm and slam the butt of the gun on the ground and it would break free. I would reload and the same thing would happen again. It would not happen on any certain round, just at random. I tried different brand of shells and got the same results.
When the guns jams it acts just like my 870 does when its REALLY dirty, but the action is smooth before and after the issue happens. I have not taken the gun completely apart, just a simple field cleaning (pulling the barrel, and wiping down the exposed bolt surfaces).. I dont see and burrs anywhere inside the chamber or bolt surfaces..
Any advice on what to do, is there somekind of a common issue that I am dealing with?
