[QUOTE="Huntaholic, post: 5629589, member: 605"] Great job keeping your composure and getting it done! I did the same thing once in NE hunting merriams. 870 didnt fire and here I sit with about 15 hens and a strutter 30 yards in front of me in a field! Only I didnt get as lucky as you did, when I went to eject and reload I shortshucked it and jammed the whole thing up! Anybody thats ever did this knows when that happens the barrel has to come off to clear the jam, so here I am, laying flat on my back tearing my gun down to get back in the game! Believe it or not, I managed to pull it off and get it loaded, slam the forearm forward, raise up to my knees, and still killed the strutter! John Beard mounted that one for me and he asked if he could enter in the competition at the Convention. Of course I said yes and he ended up winning the show with it! He even let me have the blue ribbon! He kept the bronze trophy though lol. [/QUOTE]
