Had one jam today, wasn't the gun fault. Shot a light universal winchester load at a box just plinking, and it was a swollen hull and got stuck in the chamber. We put it in my friends benelli nova and he could hardly get it open. After that i loaded up 3 rounds and shot them smooth as butter. The gun still appears to foul more than my liking where the ports sit over the piston. Took the trigger out last night and bolt and cleaned all the 90 weight gun oil off that stuff and there is no fouling in the chamber. So far minus the screwed up shot the gun functions flawlessly in the cold and warm weather. I have yet to drop it in the water or use it as a boat paddle or dropped in the mud but its day will come we all fall in the duck hole some time or another ha.
