A friend'd Browning upon shooting the top barrel causes the opening lever to move to the open position...to the far right. it's on face and tight. The top lever spring seems of normal pressure when opening otherwise. Any suggestions welcomed. Thanks

Insuficient or worn bite . Nothing to do with the spring or the gun being on face . It needs to have a new bolt fitted . Essential to check that there is a clearence between the top of the action and the barrel wings when the new bolt is fitted ,because as the gun wears the barrel drops down and bears on the action rather than on the face . It is a not uncommon fault with Brownings and their Miroku offspring . I also come acros the problem with other bottom bolting O/U's of other makes .
