i already tried that as well... gunsmith shot it 9 times . 3 shot intervals. said he couldnt find anything wrong with it. i knew it would make me out a liar! i took it hunting last weekend and it fired fine the first 3 shots. then the second time i attempted to shoot it , it jammed my buddy was watching and shook his head.. he owns the sbe1 he said his never jammed. he took mine and low and behold the second shell jammed on him!
