im shooting a beretta al391
here recently the gun has been half cycling.
ejects fine but puts the next shell only about half way in the chamber.
the action is real slow,ive clean the hell outta this gun.
i was told that the rear recoil spring could be going bad.
anyone had this before or know anything about this?
thanks guys in advance.......craig

Your problem is not reletad to any thing but a mistake. There were a batch of 391's that got a 390 feeder carrier by accident. Call Beretta and they will either send you a new one that you will have to install yourself or send it in. If your in a hurry and want it back asap send it to rich at
www.colegun.net/ for about 100 bucks he will replace it and polish the trigger parts.

It will take about 2 mins to replace with a small punch needed.

6 Years old would put it in the first generation. Does the carrier have a small bend on the end of it going towards the chamber or is it striaght???

If you feel it is was cold or locking get a spray can of BreakFree CLP spray on and leave wet. Don't get the squeeze bottle since you want it all over.

Check your PM I sent pictures and a wonderful read on how to work on the 391.

They are the work horse of shotguns hands down.
