I was just about to create a post on these. Ive seen litterally dozens of these appearing for sale on a daily basis on various forums atm and was wondering why everyone is selling them off?! Are they that bad?

I'm on my second(first one was bought before they did left handers), my mate bought my first and niether of us have had any problems and we use them on pidgeons.rough shoots and ducks and geese. I know of another six people who have them and only one has had a recycle problem and that's with very light loads on clays but they are magnums so they are not made to recycle light loads. I also have a Remington 1100 with two sets of barrels and that doesn't like light loads with the magnum barrel on because the pressure bleed hole in the barrel is different to a standard barrel.

i got mine couple of months ago made up with it not had any problems with it use mine for bushing with terriers

me too, had it over 3 yrs now, cycles anything, not had a problem with it ever,

The earlier 3" magnums would NOT cycle short cartridges, fell apart and several blew up the barrels!

 

This was down to terrible quality control, materials and design.

 

Apparently there have been some improvements!

Glad to hear you guys have no problems, I can only compare to a mate of mine, 18 months ago he bought one brand new and had nothing but problems with it sent it back to the shop 3 times, in the end he got his money back.........

i have just bought one of there about 4 months ago. Black synth stock 3 shot magnum 3 inch cham. Used it a little for foxes on local shoot and its bob on. Light and cycling seems to be good. Loading seems to be a bit of effort at first but i got used to it. I would recommend for a knock about rough gun.
