First I'll say I really love this gun -BUT-
My Model 11 is in great shape but fails to feed 1/2 the time when fired. Sometimes I think it may be the carrier spring because when it fails, a tug back then release of the bolt handle clears it fast every time.
It seems like the shell carrier isn't making it all the way up. It also does this sometimes when the bolt is to the rear, a round is slapped into the ejection port properly onto the carrier and then the bolt released.
The gun is clean and lightly oiled but malfunctions with both lighter and heavy loads no matter how the rings are set. Thanks for reading this and please advise.
By the way, it was a presentation gift to someone when it was new back in 1927 and I won it on Auction Arms from JackTheDog - and wish it could talk!
