micky1987 Posted June 29, 2010 Report Share Posted June 29, 2010 anyone own or used to own one of these? if so did u ever have any problems with it? i bought one brand new about 2 month ago and never had a problem. but yesterday i noticed a kind of rattling noise from the action which sounds very like the firing pin sliding up and down. any ideas Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mudpatten Posted June 29, 2010 Report Share Posted June 29, 2010 When you bought it did you strip it right down, disassemble the bolt and degrease it internally? It sounds to me that the inertia spring inside the bolt is now free of grease and is moving about inside the bolt as it should. If you invert any properly cleaned Benelli you can hear the inertia spring moving. It is perfectly normal. The firing pin is retained by a spring and should not move therefore making no noise. In any event, stripping the bolt right down is only the work of seconds and you`ll quickly see if anything is broken. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
micky1987 Posted June 29, 2010 Author Report Share Posted June 29, 2010 cheers mudpatten. was stripped and cleaned of the heavy storage grease. think it was because i hadnt really shot that much through it. now since its had some good use at crows its getting kind of ran in. my father has an m2 and its exactly the same.
