Browning BPS 20 ga Problem...Help...

hi-powerhal · September 4, 2002, 07:20 PM

4 years ago I bought a Bps for a back up field gun. It never would pump right. Every other round you could pull the slide all the way back and wait a few moments and hear the tube shoot the next shell out into the receiver. The third round would never make it into receiver. It would go from the tube to the ground. Gunsmith said it just was new, it needed to be worked in so he fluffed and buffed a little and sent it home. Still the same problem. What should I do now? Should I try to mess with it or just send it back to browning? Anyone else have this problem with browning pump shotguns?

Send it back to Browning. They should fix it as a warrantee repair (if the warrantee period has not expired).
