After reading several threads here about various cycling problems ,I was all set to send the gun back to Mossberg for fixing . But before I even put a shell in the gun ,I added the Choate 8 shot extender.
After getting it all back together , to my dismay ...... it wont manually cycle any shell I put in it .
I have zero experience with a semi-auto shotgun so not sure what is what .
I can tell you loading the mag takes a really lot of force to get the shell to go in -hurts my thumb pretty bad and seems like it takes WAY to much power to push them in .
Then when I try to manually cycle low brass, high brass , slugs, 3" shells,etc. , none of them even get close to getting in the barrel .
My biggest problem is that now after I ground off that lip to put on the mag. tube extension I suspect Mossberg will say I voided my guarantee by modifying the gun .
It's my own stupid fault for not testing the guns cycling ability right out of the box - but I naively assumed a brand new gun would function properly . What would you do ?
