Had my new 870 Remington magnum for some time before firing it. Lots of cool rack-rack sounds of course. Went out to try skeet with a friend, and was a complete farkup as I just did not have a feel for how much harder you have to shove the slide forward when actually chambering a round. Kept getting jammed up partway into the chamber and pumping again after shaking the shell out of the action. Shotgun equivalent of limp-wristing it I suppose.....
As a former Marine with tons of rifle experience, it was very embarrassing to not know proper pump shotgun handling in front of civilian friends.......
LOL One of lifes moments.
Thanks for your service dg
