This gun has less than two boxes of shells through it over the last 6-7 years. Now, it won’t eject the bottom barrel. It won’t go back to CSMC because their work is garbage (as seen from the bores). I live in CO, and want to get the gun usable again. I’ve heard rumors CSMC has had problems with springs breaking. Is this typically an easy fix for a semi competent gunsmith?

Edit. Is there an easy way to post pictures?

I have had it happen with a gun that sat up for awhile. Took a few rounds to get everything ejecting properly again

The day it stopped working, I had fired it a couple times prior with no issues. Now, you have to pry the shell out.

Factory ammo or reloads?

Thank you

When you say pry do you mean really hard to pull out or easy and you are pissed?


So many guns, so little time!

Try some different shells. If you have any with real brass bases, try that first. Brass bases expand on firing then retract a bit, whereas steel bases expand on firing and stay that way.

I haven’t shot it since last season, but if I remember correctly, I had to use the lip on a spent shell to pop it out…. At this point, Im not pissed anymore. I was pissed the 2nd time the gun had to go back to CSMC after they didn’t fix several craftsmanship issues the first time. The sad thing is, I love their A-10’s, but due to their QC, I’ll probably end up with a Guerini instead.

Holly cow, I just took delivery of an inverness last month hope I have no issues. I use snap caps Then remove the forearm, and barrels remove snaps and put the gun back together and store back in the safe.

Note sure that helps or not.

Everyone I know who’s owned a CSMC has had issues with every single gun. With that said, nobody I know has bought one in years, so they may be better now. But when a well known high end gun dealers tells you he has no idea why anyone would ever buy a CSMC gun, that should say something. The chambers on mine still look like a 6yr old had fun using a Dremel on them, but I got sick of sending it back to CSMC just to have them screw up other things.
