Do you remember if the gun was hard to close prior to the last shot? Do the barrels break open at all? If they do, while trying to open the barrels, try the rod again. If the barrels don't break at all, something internally is wrong.

Could be the old problem of having an oversized/out of round shell rim stick in the rim recess. New ammo tends to have poor made brass bases these days. AA's are the worst. I have three guns - two Parkers and a JD Dougal that will stick shut if I shoot AA's in them. My Repro 28 is the worst. I've had to put it into a rubber jawed vise where I'm forcing the barrels closed even more then gently apply pressure until the lever moves all the way right, then hold the lever while I release the vise - 4 hands helps here - and pick the gun out and open it. Pretty scary. My DH12 sticks but not that badly, but any more I just shoot STS or vintage paper ammo in it and never have an issue.

On another note regarding this gun....I was terrified that airport security might ask that I prove this gun was unloaded....thank goodness they did not have a desire to dig that deep into my gun chest!!

Before you send the gun off to Kirk, try phoning him for advice.
Or... phone DelGrego. Chances are, they can help. |
