Home Forums Birds & Dogs Shotguns lubing an 870 shotgun

I bought a new Remington 870 and without cleaning or oiling, shot 50+ rounds through it.

After about 40 rounds the action started sticking closed on a fired shell.

With a hard tug, and a lot of wiggling of the fore end, it would eject the empty.

Cleaned the chamber and barrel, and oiled the slide bars.

Haven't test fired it yet.

Are there any other parts that need oiled?

Do I need to pull the barrel to get at the action for lubing?

As you can tell..I don't know much about shotguns!


Thanks! Virgil B.
