Got a 870 in 20 gauge that came in for cleaning. It’s in fairly rough shape. Was dirty & rusty and had quite a bit of sand in the receiver, especially in the small spaces of the shell latches.
Action seemed fairly stiff, but then again I didn’t open it fully, just enough to get the barrel off & get it disassembled for cleaning.
Got it all cleaned up. Now when I put it back together the action bars will only cycle in about 1/2 way before they stop & bind up. I’m not seeing anything in the receiver to show what might be causing this problem.
Maybe the action bars are warped?
Any of y’all ever run across this kind of issue?
