I’ve been an 870 user my whole life, and my Benelli M4 is my first shotgun that is semi auto. Loading rounds in every 870 I’ve owned has been smooth like butter. On the M4 it’s hard as hell. The shell lip always gets hung up on the shell stop and have to jam it in even harder. Makes loading 4 a nightmare since I have small hands. Sends shells flying everywhere. I noticed that the shell stop spring is stiff as hell. Do people mod these to soften them up? It’s not an issues with the magazine tube spring being too stiff. It’s strictly an issue with the thing that holds the shells in the tube. The shells get hung up because the spring is so stiff. I have to jam the shell with my thumb into the tube. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.
