I went hunting with 3 friends, 2 of which had benelli 12 ga pump action shot guns, it was -5 ,the 2 benellis froze up ruining a day of hunting and 1 mile walk to hunt, me and the other guy had 1960's winchesters and had no problems. I was wondering if this was a typical problem, and yes the do keep their guns oiled and in tip top shape, please someone let me know and if possible send me an email please
