remington 870 jamming fix

If you are having a problem with 870 jamming my problem was with a small piece of slider breaking of where the shells eject.Its cause by impact of firing allowing the barrel to articulate slightly and break the top slide by the eject spring.Just used a dremel tool to take the edge of the upper rail.Just contour the upper rail like the lower one and its a permanent fix,never had a problem after.Got pics if anyone needs them.

Thanks!
The rim of the hull will hang up before the rest of it is extracted from the chamber causing it to FTE.

It would be item 17 in the diagram.
This may be what fowleg is referring to and is indeed an easy fix.
