T Reed Posted October 26, 2007 Share Posted October 26, 2007 Ocassionally, when I pull the bolt rearward to the locked position as when inserting a shell, it remains locked. Pushing in the release button does nothing, no matter the force used. I need to play with the shell feed mechanism to get it to release. Is there a defect with my gun or is it some form of operator error? Once it releases, it functions normally untill the next jam. Happens quite often when I break it down for cleaning and reassemble. Sticks like this at the first cycle of the bolt then operates normally after I free it up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DU4ME2 Posted October 29, 2007 Share Posted October 29, 2007 Is the shell feed all the way down?Where you located?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T Reed Posted October 29, 2007 Author Share Posted October 29, 2007 The shell feed is all the way UP. I have to reach into the chamber and push it down to get the bolt to come forward. I'm in La Crosse. Functions perfectly once loaded and fired. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HOGWILD Posted October 29, 2007 Share Posted October 29, 2007 http://www.benelliusa.com/customer-service/pdfs/SBE%20II%20Manual.pdf follow manual procedures and you should not have an issue and if ya do you were probably not following manual, Italian shotgun is very awkward to first get used to but once ya get the hang of it it makes since. Manual is not the best written ones either as they do not go too far in depth on issues but feel strongly you are not following manual! If ya still have issue cal C/S they will take care of ya if you have a problem and can deal with admitting it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

T Reed Posted October 30, 2007 Author Share Posted October 30, 2007 NJgunner, I use breakfree because that is what Binelli CS told me to use. Just thoroughly cleaned it before a duck hunt this last weekend. I called them about this issue and they want me to send the gun in. Thanks for the assistance. I will send it in in January, after the seasons close here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt D Posted October 31, 2007 Share Posted October 31, 2007 T Reed, When this happens can you pull back on the bolt handle a little (moving the bolt back a little) and press the relesae button. Will the bolt relase forward? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T Reed Posted November 2, 2007 Author Share Posted November 2, 2007 Matt D, No. Only depressing the shell feed allows the bolt to come forward. I have played with it a bit to determine exactly when it happens. Pulling the bolt rearward just short of it's maximum travel, then releasing it forward about a quarter inch causes the shell feed to pop up. If I pull the bolt all the way rearward, it functions normally. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
