Hey guys im having an issue with my somewhat new SBE 2.
In the last 2 weeks i've had 2 double feeds from my gun. I'll shoot and the shell ejects and then the last two shells feed. One will be out in the lever and about a half inch from the other one would be poking out of the magazine as well keeping the first one from feeding.
Its happened with a clean gun and with a dirty gun. The last time it malfunctioned, I cleaned it I pulled the plug and mag spring to clean it as well.
i had the same problem a lot last season. It started doing it again this year and I swapped the mag spring for a wolff +25% spring. It is a lot better, but it has had 1 double feed with the new spring.
You're saying it launches 2 shells and the shells get stuck in a straight line at the bottom of the receiver, right? That's what mine was doing.
id make sure the trigger group is cleaned very well....get compressed air and blow it out with a bunch of cleaner soaking in the group...
it doesnt sound like the mag spring should be at fault... there should be a shell catch that is forced up...make sure its spring is clean and there is nothing to hinder its quick recovery.....
once the shells base moves past the catch it should be trying to close...and should rub on the plastic shells length as it goes by and is forced over to prevent the second shell from followign the first....maybe there is a machining burr hanging up the free movement of the catch and its spring
I haven't cleaned my trigger group yet and i've probably ran 450 rounds through the gun so far. It was on my list of things to do. I think i'll do it tonight.

if you have never pulled out the trigger group and looked at it. you will realize when you do, all the effect its operation has on the cycling of the action!!
when you go to install it after you clean it...you need to compress that one part that is spring loaded on the inside of the action to allow the carrier on the trigger group to get by....then the trigger groups goes in easily ....
i dont know the name of that part that is forced inward by a spring....but you need to close that as you install the trigger group....at least until the carrier can get in far enough to hold that part by itself.
Just sell it and get a beretta extrema. I hear alot of benelli shooters with this problem. Im not big on inertia guns, because it was been improved with gas. Anyways my other advice would be to take it to the retailer you got it from and let them know you want them to fix the issue. I buy guns at 2nd amendments where I live and they warranty all of their gear and if they cannot fix it, it gets sent back to the manufacturers gunsmiths. anyways best of luck, hope you get this resolved quickly. Always keep a pump action with you when you shoot any autoloaders :beer:
I've done quite a bit of shooting the last couple times out and so far so good.
