Yesterday at the range, a friend was showing me his 930 Watchdog. It sure is a nice looking shotgun and it runs like a top. The problem comes in when he unloads it. He uses it for 3-gun, so he has to unload frequently.
The magazine follower or spring will get hung up, so the unfired shells will just dribble out when he pushes the button, instead of shooting out under spring pressure. It acts like the spring or follower are getting hung up somewhere. Everything is factory original. He hasn't even cut down his magazine spring. He can free it up by putting the shells back in, loosening the mag extension, & thumping the side of the forend a couple of times.
I had him install my GG&G follower, cut-down mag spring, and Nordic extension. No joy, it still happens. I inspected the end of his mag tube and it looks pristine. It's in better shape than mine.
Got any other ideas?
