coyote_warrior Posted March 16, 2007 Share Posted March 16, 2007 I am a long time Benelli owner. I have three original SBE's and have fired thousands of rounds without a jam, cycling problem, or misfire. I cannot say the same about my SBE-II. It is a camo model and I'm wondering if the tolerance issues created by the camo overlay are a factor, or if something else is wrong. I have had numerous situations where the first shell will fire and even if the second shell loads properly, the trigger does not reset. Last weekend, I ejected all the shells, manually cycled and loaded a new shell, and still the trigger would not reset. I was using Federal #6 Pheasant loads. Anyone else having these kinds of problems? Is there an obvious fix or is it time to send it in to the factory?

JRSpicer4261980 Posted March 16, 2007 Share Posted March 16, 2007 I had it occur once when I used 2 1/2" shells or even below that (Roll Crimps) with LIGHT powder loads, but for a Pheseant Load, no clue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coyote_Warrior Colorado C/S should be able to answer this type of question 18003224626 if they say you have a problem ya gotta get an RA anyway probably!! the shells you are having issues with were Federal? Good luck either way!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tucker301 Posted February 21, 2010 Share Posted February 21, 2010 The Benelli trigger group is a very simple design. If you have any mechanical ability, you should be able to tear it down and pinpoint the problem. If you cannot, you need to take it to a competent gunsmith or friend.

ranmcc Posted February 21, 2010 Share Posted February 21, 2010 I let a friend of mine use my SBE II and after he shot it a couple of times I he had the same problem. I am not exactly sure what he did but have a theory. I have never had the problem before. I think what he was doing was putting to many shells in the receiver by pushing the small silver lever next to the trigger (don't recall its name) and then firing the gun. It would not fire like the safety was still on. I know you can put one shell in the receiver and then pull the bolt back. I think he was doing that then pressing the level twice?????????? I took it completely apart and made sure everything was clean and oiled and have never had a problem since. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wintetra Posted February 23, 2010 Share Posted February 23, 2010 i think i may have found the problem. i took the trigger group out and started to try to locate what was wrong. i held the pin down then pulled the trigger and it the pin fired but i was holding it so it didnt do any damage. i still couldnt figure out what was wron then i blew in it to get so of the powder out and a bb came out from in there. i am hopeing that this was the problem, but im pretty sure it was. thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
