Here's a picture of one exactly like mine. I took it all apart and I knew it had 4 shells in the chamber but none in the tube? I must have cocked it while I was cleaning it. That's the only thing that could have happened, but after I was done I pointed it at the window and expected it to dry fire. Imagine my face when BOOM and my dog was sitting right there. It took out 2 windows, screen and all that. I have been handling firearms for 45 years and never had this happen. But you know the old saying, unloaded guns kill. 361.00 for the repair and I stillhave the screen to fix.
