High Standard Model 10B Loading Problems

[Verci0013]

I've tried searching though the internet and I can't seem to find the answer, so this is pretty much my last resort.

Every time I start loading shells into the magazine tube the shells would get stuck 3/4 of the way in. I suppose the problem would be the Cartridge lever not raising high enough to clear the length of the shell but the lever is raised all the way and the shell is the appropriate length (2 3/4). The only way I can get it to load is to forcefully muscle the shell in, which I hate to do.

Hopefully someone who has had experience with this particular firearm can help me here, please help Obi Wan Kenobi, you're my only hope.

Now I know why my 40yr old 10B was unfired... they couldn't load it.
Just finished working on mine today to get the bugs out, sent you a PM with the details.

I think it's worth the effort to get it running reliably. They are great HD weapons.

Thank you very much

unfortunately I can't find a single snap cap around here to demonstrate my problem, I should be able to pick one up tomorrow and get a vid up as well. I have a feeling posting it here might prove beneficial for other people trying to find a solution. Thanks again Readyman!
