I have a 870 Express Magnum, and a couple of times
I have had trouble where after I fire, the slide will not budge.
I find I need to pull it forwards with a hard shove, and it seems to move forward a millimeter and then frees up and slides back and ejects the shell.
Anyone else see this happen? Is there something I did wrong when putting it back together after cleaning? Maybe I should be pulling forward on the slide a little when I pull the trigger? It seems like maybe if I am pulling the slide towards me a little when I fire, it might be putting pressure that hangs up the slide release catch...
