My 590A1 has been giving me problems lately and I can't figure it out.
Half the time I will get failures to fire.
It either goes boom or there is no primer strike at all, no light primer strikes.
I can clearly hear and feel the hammer fall on the no strikes.
Sometimes I can get it to fire the second time, sometimes not.
I have detail cleaned the whole gun. No difference.
I have removed the firing pin and see no damage. It or it's channel were not dirty enough to cause problems.
I can't see any excessive wear or damage anywhere on the shotgun. Everything seems to be working properly.
Mag tube is tight and so is the cap and barrel.
Thanks for any help.
ETA: I just thought of something. Could the bolt locking pin be broken and I just can't see it?
