    I sold a Mossberg 500 after about 20 rounds because I hated the pain of shooting it. I have at least 6-700 through the 1301 and still love it.

    Picked mine up right after work today. If this thing works as good as it feels, I’m going to be in love.

    Problem: My 1301 would not feed dummy rounds from the tube onto the lifter. It would feed one if you shook the gun to "simulate" recoil, just enough to momentarily stop the brass from bearing against the front of the shell latch. This basically made it impossible to practice manipulations using dummy rounds, or trust the gun to operate as needed generally. A little bit of a problem.

    I searched and found others had had the same problem and fixed it by smoothing the front of the shell latch. So I watched a couple videos on disassembling a 1301 and got after it.

    Shell latch, as shipped by Beretta:
    The MIM mold parting flash was apparently biting into the brass enough to prevent the shell latch from moving off the side of the shell head to allow the shell to feed past it.

    Shell latch, after hitting it with the fine India stone. Ridge is gone, MIM surface roughness knocked down a little bit. Could probably have called it good at this point.

    Shell latch, after going back over it with the extra fine Arkansas stone. You can still see some of the deeper scratches from the India stone and some of the pits in the MIM surface. That's a few whiskers of lint from the paper towel I used to wipe the baby oil off it on the upper left. (I use baby oil when putting stone to metal, as it's probably OK to have on my skin.)

    Shell latch, from the other side. Made sure all the corners/edges were at least kinda broken and smooth. Although it looks rough, it feels very smooth. Even not considering the removal of the parting line, the rest of it is flatter than it was before touching it up.

    Hit it with the cold blue touch up pen before putting it all back together. Reassembled the gun, loaded up some dummy rounds and emptied the tube a few times by cycling the gun. It now feeds like a boss. No hassle of a return trip to Beretta.

    Also, I'm pretty happy with the macro function on my three-generations-obsolete camera. I can do better with the DSLR and a tripod, but this came out halfway decent for hand holding a point and shoot.

    What’s everyone using on their Nordic clamp to keep it from sliding around and killing the finish on the barrel?

    An Allen Wrench to take it off and then leave it off.
