What am I doing wrong?

I have a brand new M1014, my first-ever auto-loading shotgun. When I put a shell (2 3/4" ) into the mag tube and cycle the charging handle to bring it into the chamber, it stops on the lifting ramp and goes no farther. I had to remove the trigger group to get the shell out. What am I missing or doing wrong? OR do I need to be embarrassed for being a bonehead?

New out of the box, with no mods or changes, yet. I have completely broken it down and reassembled it, that went smoothly

Your options:

Go back to your FFL and show them the problem

Take it to a range with a rangemaster (who should be able to provide assistance), drop a shell into the ejection port, let the BCG slam the shell into battery then see it if goes bang when you pull the trigger and auto loads the next shell (this is what I would do to fully diagnose the issue), use only full power rounds like buckshot for function testing a new shotgun

Contact Benelli after troubleshooting with someone with more experienced with the Benelli M4
