Took my sx3 tonight. Bolt and trigger assembly anyways. Very clean- but cleaned and inspected what I could. Your video was a huge help. I didn’t get into the action spring in the stock. The issue, I thought, was the bolt was locking back with each shot, as it would normally do on the last shell. Turns out, it’s not. It holding open with each shot, but if I barely touch the....bolt handle (the thing your finger pulls the action open with) it slams shut, thus feeding the next round. Everything is smooth, aligned, no major wear. Bought new a year ago, long after the sX4 came out. May have 35 round through it. Any guess? Could it be the action spring? Does that tension propel the bolt forward while cycling ? Turkey season, no places open with covid 19 causing shutdowns, troubleshooting on my own here.
Does the shell ramp have to go back on in order for the trigger to function correctly? When loading the 2nd, 3rd shells in it, I’m not a fan of when my gloves get caught loading shells. Then I just take one glove off while I’m shooting. Only reason I ask, my old Ithaca doesn’t have that and I’ve gotten used to that style. But if not, I’ll leave it on and continue to load them normally. And a side note, unless I missed it, I was really hoping for lubrication points along the way, but I still need to finish the video🤣. Thanks for the breakdown and assembly, very helpful.
After my 1st shot of a 3.5" turkey shell the gun isn't feeding a 2nd shot out of the magazine. I can hand pull the bolt back and feeds the shell out of magazine no problem. Do you have an idea why the gun has started doing this after 4yrs. The gun is clean also and assembled correctly. Thanks in advance!!!
Great video! My uncle gave me a disassembled SX3. Your video got it up and running in no time. It made me look smart, ha!
Glad to help. You are going to love that gun.
You just saved my ass. Thank you for the vid.

The gun needs the lifter to work.
@@UndertheGun Copy that, had to ask. But I loved the video, watched both to cleanup my X3 yesterday. Thanks!
How do you take the mag tube off, mine has snapped off 70mm from the end and need to replace it.
It need to go to Winchester or a gunsmith,
Nice video. Mine SX4. Is it similar to reassembly as SX3? Anyway, good sharing. It's my favour to know other shotgun variant...
I believe they are similar but I'm not 100% sure.
@@UndertheGun can you make a video about SX4 next time? Hope you have time and effort to do so...
