your obviously not a military guy then...
In archery we have something like the way of the superior man. When the archer misses the center of the target, he turns round and seeks for the cause of his failure in himself.

The 835 ulti mag is a winner for sure. You will like it, and it will be dependable.

I got an 835 utili-mag all tore apart in pieces, it wouldn't eject.  Thought it would be gooood medicine on geese with that 3 1/2 inch BB shot!

I had to ram a rod down the barrel and pound out the spent shotshell each time I shot it. 

Nothing worse than being in a blind, geese falling all around you from your buddies and you with a gun that won't run  >:(

Tried numerous things to get the shot shells from sticking, didn't matter high brass, low brass they jammed every freaking shot.  Someone said maybe it has a micro crack I can't see...dunno.

bought a tactical barrel and some blackhawk furniture thinking I'd make a cheap tactical,  wrong.  The slide push arms are too long, mossberg wants too much money for shorted push arms.  Tossed it all in a box and said heck with it 10-15 years ago.   Hate that gun.  I've had other mossbergs and all have let me down, I got a mossberg rifle that the safety doesn't work. afraid to shoot it, might blow up, but it came with the wife, so I can't bury it in a manure pile where it belongs.

I'm to Mossberg as Biggerhammer is to Tikka, I hate them.

good luck with it  :tup:

osMsburg had a run of chambers that were out of spec. You can buff polish or sand out the chamber some so that it works without sticking. This is what i do to all of my shotgun barrels and why my hunting partner did to his Mossberg that had your same problem.

Mossbergs are like a redheaded bastage stepchild. I've known a couple fellow waterfowlers who got so fed up and pizzed at their Mossys they threw them in the river. I've owned 3 of them and felt like winging them into the sound,but ended up trading them in to some other unsuspecting soul.

Pay the extra for an 870 or Browning :twocents:

I couldn't bring myself to sell them to some poor dude, heck I wouldn't sell one to my enemy.

I think I'll take them to the cutoff saw and saw through the receivers and toss in the metal pile.
