    Default Benelli Supernova Double Feed

    Does anyone know who to contact for help with my Benelli Supernova?

    What happens is it sometimes ejects 2 shells from the tube at the same time time causing a jam, it did this with the standard tube and with the extended tube...

    Is there an easy fix anyone knows about or should I contact the agents?

    Formalito?

    My shotgun did the same (albeit very far from a supernova)

    The two arms internally, where one stops the next shell from exiting the tube, one arm was bent and had this replaced. So far better than new

    The first thing everyone thought was short stroking

    Mine would double feed the two live rounds, It's a hell of a jam to clear.
    Lifetime warranty from Dave sheer on the Akkar shotguns, however I wasn't keen on waiting for my local store to send it up. So bought the part from DS and my local smith fitted.

    Where did you buy the shotgun from? I'm sure they would have a look at it

    All be it I am no expert, I have noted that some shotgun ammo has variances in the rim on the shell.
    Does your shotgun do the same with other manufactured ammo?

    It's possible the mag tube is allow the second round to sneak by as the rim is not wide enough to catch?

    I have only had issues with the shorter rounds, but have seen issues you talk of in other shotguns, specifically my wifes Winchester with Imperial ammo as opposed to the S&B which works perfectly

    So far the issue is the same with 3 different types of ammo that I have tried and even with my snap caps...

    Def sounds like a latch problem, the old winnie 1300 guys used to just bend the latch back a bit
    I wouldn't recommend that though haha
