rockinjr Posted January 10, 2020 Share Posted January 10, 2020 Super 90 locking head issues. so my Super 90 locking head hangs up and will not turn completely back into the bolt carrier. I have cleaned this gun many times and the recoil spring as well. I am shooting 3" heavy steel. After the first shoot there is not a second shot due to the bolt not seating all the way forward.

truckcop Posted January 11, 2020 Share Posted January 11, 2020 (edited) Search the forum for "Benelli click". It's a long-time known issue with some guns. Various fixes have been tried with mixed results. I fixed one of my guns with a swap of locking heads between guns. Fixed another one by replacing the original blued locking head with a newer version chromed head. It happens regardless of the loads; heavy, light, slugs, buckshot, birdshot. Benelli never really acknowledged a problem, putting the blame on dirty guns, ammunition, not holding the gun properly, et. al. A couple of years ago they finally made a modification of the bolt on a couple of models that appears to have corrected the problem . Unfortunately, the re-designed bolt group isn't backward compatible with older guns. Edited January 11, 2020 by truckcop Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
