We conducted field maintenance -- literally -- taking the gun apart and there it was... the black goo. We cleaned it up with gun cleaner, re-assembled the gun, and BINGO... it works like a champ! I simply replaced everything minus the rubber shock washer and it works with low brass and high brass, just fine. 2 3/4 inch shells. JUST WANTED TO SAY THANK YOU to this thread, Tim Berners-Lee (inventor of the WWW), Apple for the iPhone, and Verizon for the wireless service in the middle of nowhere! It's amazing what's possible given all this technology and people williness to share expertise! Keep up hte good work!

Hello bassman523
Fantastic. I am glad my Post helped you out in the field about the rubberized recoil Buffer. I ran a model 1000 Shot gun without one for year's they are really not needed if you do not desire to put one back in if you are shooting low Brass shells. I think they were for High Brass shwell's to Buffer the recoil action more. I hope this helps and Happy Hunting. Regards, Hammerdown
