Golden Eagle m870 leaking gas

[Rm1980]

Good afternoon,

I received a GE m870 Shotgun model 8874 in a mystery box. Can't say I was not happy about it as it is a good looking shotgun.

I filled the gas tank up and as soon as I hold it, it is leaking from between receiver and barrel (?), still working on learning all the technical terms.

I did message the company that send me the box but still waiting for a reply. In the mean time, is something like this an easy fix or should I wait for them to respond?

Regards,

Red

My ge shotgun had a leak and I could not solve it and I was ready to bin it. My pal pulled it apart and a nut further up that secured the gas pipe was loose. I think it’s shagged long term but the symptoms were just as you described
