[QUOTE="Catt57, post: 3079538, member: 34578"] So I got home and got to looking at the one gill-gun that kept jamming. Its a new acquisition and this was the first chance I've had to shoot it. After a good inspection I've found that the cartridge guide spring is bent so it pushes the rounds to the side in the lifter. And of course its one part that I don't have a spare of. Oh well, Numrich has some new manufacture replacements. I'll probably order 2 or 3 so I have spares in the future. Maybe I'll be able to bring to the next ENS. And on the Stevens 86. (The bolt action one) almost everyone commented on how smooth the trigger was. As manufactured the triggers on those flop around like a dying fish. I made a very thin brass shim out of an electrical wire terminal and used it to shim the trigger pin to eliminate the side to side slop. On another note: by the time I left the one gill-gun had over 500 rounds of Thunderbolts put thru it today. It was still going strong and wasn't even slowing down from being so dirty. I should probably clean it anyway though.. Lol [/QUOTE]
