Just purchased the Red Label 12 Ga. Took it out of the box and assembled it. The manual indicates that the when you open the action to load it, you will hear a click as the ejectors snap out, like most O/Us. When I open my action, I encounter some resistance and have to apply some pressure to get the ejectors to pop out - and I don't hear a click - I hear a loud nasty CRACK!!! At first I thought the forearm broke, but it is the ejectors coming out.
I've never owned a Red Label, but everything I read about them says that they fall open pretty easy to the point where they feel loose. I'm wondering if I need to ship my gun back to the factory or if this is normal or something that loosens up with a little use.
Any insight will be much appreciated.
