My son bought me a used semi automatic shotgun for fathers day. It would not have been my first choice, Winchester 1400. I cleaned it but did not do complete dis assembly. Put probably 50 or 60 rounds thru it with no malfunctions. Today when I closed the bolt, shell in chamber fired. I was no where near trigger. Has anybody heard of this happening in semi auto shotgun?
