Thanks for all the replies! Its good to know that its quite a common thing with new guns.....looks like i'm just gonna ave to use it even more often when i'm back.....what a shame ay! Thanks for the tip, I may just ave to try the old dri-lube see if it helps :o Yeah theres no other probs with it, well pleaseed I got it and cant wait to get some decoying in when i'm back for Easter.

Hi all.....great forum with loads of good reads I'm just looking for your opinions on opening the breech of my first shotgun that I have fairly recently bought. Its a 12g Lanber Field which I am well pleased with .....although havent been able to use it too much as ive been away since Christmas when I got it ..... but bring on the Easter hols an i'l be out everyday with it! :o Its a lovely gun but the only slight problem with it, is that its quite stiff to open and close the breech, you really have to grip it along the barrels to get a bit of extra leverage. Although I obviously knew this when I got it, it was a good price and the gundealer assured me it would loosen up after putting a few cartridges through it. Ive been away since Christmas and have only managed to round off about 70 cartridges since gettting it. My question, is it fairly common for a gun to be stiff to open and close when brand new? Does it really need 'running in' or has the gundealer sold me a right kipper? Thanks

Hi all, great forum and nice to see so many like minded people A pick of my first shotgun, which I bought just before Christmas, so cannot get out enough with it at the moment! It's a Lanber Field 28" and the other is my BSA Supersport .22.
