Last year I purchased a Remington Model 597 and since the purchase I've had many problems with the gun jamming. Seems that I can't even go through a clip of ten shots without it jamming up a couple times.
I'm guessing the problem is with the extractor not kicking the empty out hard/fast enough. Generally the bolt catches the empty as it is trying to load the new cartridge.
Anyone here have any problems with a 597? How did you resolve the problem?
It's been about 10 months since I bought my 597, so I think it is still under warranty. Regardless, I plan on calling Remington tomorrow and see about sending it back to have it fixed. I'm getting tired of my semi-auto shooting like a single shot.
