I'll confess to being a bit unfamiliar with semi-auto shotguns except for a Remington 1100 I had briefly a few years back. Now I have a Franchi light 12 which I'm having a problem with concerning shells left in the magazine. I think you have to load the magazine first and then load one shell in the open chamber to get the ball rolling so to speak. In other words I don't believe by closing the bolt with the magazine loaded that it will pick up the first round in the mag. tube. On the reverse side if you rack the bolt to eject the loaded round, it doesn't pick up the next round as well. What is the correct procedure for loading/unloading and removing any shells in the magazine tube?
