Ain't normal in my book. Years ago I bought a new A&F Knockabout by Rizzini, a 20 bore with ejectors, BT forend, POW grip and NSST, $242 if I remember correctly. Within a month the top lever had moved to the left of center, and when the shake test was applied (should have done that before I left the A&F gunroom), the barrels slid around on the water table and rattled like castinets. My two cents worth.
