Thank you folks for the replies.

My buddy and I had very enlightening conversations with bushveld and have started some of the checks recommended in this thread. Hopefully a test fire happened this afternoon but I haven't heard back yet.

Also, it appears I need to pass along the additional input from Kutter and dogon.

My buddy (a few folks on here may have run into him at several of the Southern SxS events) has tried to register on the forum but apparently his Yahoo email address is causing issues. Outside of establishing a different email address via a different provider, are there any other options?

UPDATE: Yesterday's test firing with 4 different brands of shells (Winchester, B&P, Fiocchi and Challenger) resulted in 3 misfires when the gun was not closed with authority. However, leaving the misfired shell in the RH barrel and then closing the breech with authority resulted in all of the misfired shells firing just fine.

Apparently bushveld and SIXSKB are on to something. More inspections forthcoming.
