Oh No!! SBE II Problem???

[fabsroman]

That is the way the gun is made. It works the same way for me if I "gently" close the bolt, but I have to be pretty gentle with it. If I pull the bolt back about an inch and let it go, the bolt face usually turns into the chamber and there is no problem. I really haven't experienced this problem at all while shooting, but noticed it while sitting in a blind or on a dove chair with nothing to do but play with the gun. In 8 years, I haven't found it to be a real issue when firing the gun.

I thought about upgrading from my SBE to an SBE II for the comfortech, but then decided it was just another gimmick to get me to buy a new gun, so I spent $40 on a mercury recoil reducer instead, which I know works.
