Ok, i have now tested my gun with several different brands of ammunition. It seems that the cheap skeet rounds expand in the chamber during firing and get stuck somehow in the chamber. When i used different brand this didn't happen. And also when i used hunting shells problemn did not exist. Also, when i hit the buttstock in to the ground very hard, the slide moves and spits the shell out. I examined some of the jammed shells closely and i could see the brass part of the shell had somewhat expanded around the plastic part of the shell. I still cant figure out how the removing of the extension magazine sets the pump slide free ? I cant figure out how loosening the shell extension magazine affects the mechanics in the lock / chamber area. Tonight after the sauna, i'll take a few beers and totally clean the gun.

Hi all, first of all, sorry for my bad english, i'll try to keep this text as simple as possible. Yesterday i was shooting clays with my Nova. I encountered a weird problem as the slide appeared to be stuck in forward position after a shot (not every time but often). Empty shell was stuck in the chamber, and i couldn't load a new one since the pump just wouldn't move towards me. It moved a bit, maybe a 1 millimeter and clacked a bit forwards and backwards but not a bit more. I called the retailer for advice what i should / could do, and he suggested to fieldstrip the gun. (thank god Nova is simple to fieldstrip ) Anyways, i removed the magazine extender i had and suddenly the pump slide moved again and i could unload the shell and reload the new one. This whole episode happened twice more, but it just cant figure out the connection between pump slide and extension magazine. I'm totally sure i have installed it correctly (it has worked fine many times before). Any advice would be welcome...
