...with my friends in Barrie. I was using 2.75" Winchester AA 71/2 hevi shot target loads. I don't know if there is anything wrong with my Shotgun and I am hoping that its just the type of ammo we used (250 rounds).

When I put a total of 3 rounds in the magtube I cycle 1 shell in the chamber. Once shot, I pull back on the pump and the thing doesn't suck up the next shell. when you pull back the action you can clearly see that the round is still there its just hasn't gotten sucked up.

The work around for this is I had to push the Right-Hand-Side TAB in which released the next shell round.

Now is this a problem with the Wingmaster OR the type of ammo?

I appreciate the help, I don't want to let this nice looking shotgun go.
 
I supect it is a problem with your wingmaster. Seems you were able to cycle the first one from the mag to the chamber.
 
How hard did you pump the slide? After you got it did you completly disassemble and degrease everything? If so is there a chance it was put back together wrong?

Are you able to cycle the rounds through the chamber without firing or does this occur only after you fire it?
