So we were shooting the model 12 at the shotgun range using regular #7 loads when I saw the heatshield/bayonet combo fly off the end of the barrel! The barrel has the grooves to hold the adapter in place, and we put it back on and tightened the adapter as best we could, but it started to come off and slide off the end of the barrel again with every shot! it was the weirdest thing, and I don't understand why its doing it. Even with the bayo/heatshild assembly off partially, it was still not possible to twist it off with the hands, or move it, but with every shot it inched more and more off the barrel.
Eventually we took off the bayonet/heatshield assembly but the magazine tube is now unsupported...
Any ideas as to why something like this happens?
