the gun closes nicely with no snap-caps or shells.
I cut a shell in half to make sure it had nothing to do with chambering...still the same issue...hard to close...does not like to open...it certianly has to with the fit with a shell in the chamber. Everything looks good to me though, I can not physically see what is causing the issues. A firm push during the entire close up locks the gun tight but triyng to close slowly at all is impossible. if you start slowly it will not close even with a lot of pressure...needs the momentum of a rapid shut to close completely with any shell in the camber.
The gun does eject the snap-caps fairly well...the eject to about my elbow.
