Has anyone else experienced problems with the Chaparral Shotgun? I bought this gun from Marstar a few years back. It worked nicely for a few boxes of shells and then started jamming up to the point where I couldn't get the slide moving. It has been to a couple of gunsmiths, works fine for a box of shells and then jams up again. Anyone else experiencing this problem?
 
Empty your 97, dry fire it and then push forward on the pump and then cycle the action. The action needs a stout recoil or a push forward on the pump to release the action.

See if you can get it cycling well empty and then try it with shells. Make sure your shotgun is cleaned and lubed well and use a good quality shotgun shell with a brass head.
 
Thanks Tim. But this thing sticks so tightly the slide won't move. I've got it back in the shop again. I was just wondering if the problem is widespread or if I got the only lemon.
