To make a long story short, after not having been fired for about 50 years, I took the gun to my local trap range just to put a couple of shots thru it...to make sure it was still functional. I fired one shot, which was " high brass" no 8 shot. After that I could not break the gun open to remove the empty. I was trying to consider possible causes, such as....

1. Bad head spacing (there is a little) causing the brass to expand and cause a problem

2. Firing pin not retracted and causing interference

3. Problem with the mechanism that breaks the gun open....this always worked before when working with the gun on the bench.

Just looking for thoughts from someone else that (really) knows these guns.

Thx in advance for any comments.
