Cracking? You either strung it too tight or strung it wrong, uneven poundage. It could also be defected racket, bring it back to the company and they should give you a new one, maybe ask for a different model. There are lots of examples of cracking, suppose you have a Johnny Mac day, maybe you had them too much.

Have you turned it over? If so try a piece of plywood underneath.  That should stop the sagging...it might be a little more firm though.  Otherwise...replace it!

I dont think it will impair it but you will need to cover up the hole it will leave. I also dislike the indicator but I really dont want to screw with it. Take it to you local gun shop and see what they can do.

A sledge hammer works extremely well. Just make sure your system is unplugged first.

You may use wheel weights or shot gun shot. Usually junk yards have lead. If you have\nany old jig heads that are no longer desirable or have broken hooks, you may also re-melt these.

cut it off with a hacksaw.  \n\nyou might have to take it to a welder to reattach it.

First get some firearms training.  DO NOT use bullets for shotguns would be dangerous.  Shotguns use shell\n\nWall Mart has some affordable shotgun shells

There is a problem with the cocking mechanism.  appears that the sear, (which holds the bolt back) isn't engaging and that is why it keeps firing.  I can't tell you more without actually seeing inside your gun.

You'll have to take it to a gunsmith...Shouldn't cost much, if anything.

As several have already advised, you want to use small shot and relatively low powered loads.  Extensive testing has been done with all variations of shot and shell that you can imagine for both law enforcement and civilian use.  I have reviewed and participated in many trials using typical housing materials and human ballistic compatible materials to simulate the effects of many different weapons, including shotguns, in a home environment.   Even with low brass, target or inexpensive field loads (#7 - #8 shot), the terminal effects were devastating within 2-15 yards.\n\nIn this range the shot pattern has very little chance to open up more than a few inches and thus most of the pellets and energy of the round is concentrated in a very small area of the target.  Total penetration of the pellets depended slightly on clothing, but typically ranged from several inches to more than 8".  In many of the trials the ballistic simulant was either cut in peices or turned into mush.  The small, soft lead shot also had a lessened tendency to penetrated both sides of a typically constructed home interior wall after passing through the target.  Most of the energy that remained after exiting the target was dissipated when the pellets hit the building materials and deformed due to their soft consistencies.\n\nSteel shot and even larger soft lead shot, proved to be much more apt to over penetrate or ricochet than small, soft lead pellets and I would not recommend steel, hardened or large diameter shot for home defense.  It is important to note that even small,soft lead  shot can't be called safe when discharged inside a building due to many known and unknown factors.  Known factors include, but aren't limited to pellets that miss the target and strike walls or ceilings without first passing though the intended target, weakened or varied building materials that the pellets may strike, distances and number of walls between bystanders and simply the innumerable dangers posed by discharging a weapon in such close proximity to others in an uncontrolled situation.  \n\nWith that said, if choosing to use a shotgun for home defense, I would stick with small shot and low powered loads.  There are even several rounds available in less than 2 3/4” sizes for all gauges of shotguns that provide ample terminal effects, but help reduce collateral damage even further.  Please remember that no matter what weapon you choose or what ammunition you pick, any can and will be lethal to humans under the right circumstances and should always be treated as such.  The opinions I have expressed here are simply to demonstrate how you might choose a relatively "safer", but effective loading than others mentioned in other answers to your question.  \n\nAgain I emphasize that that there is no load that is truly safe and could be relied upon to not seriously harm or kill another person either intentionally or unintentionally.  Even low powered loads and small soft lead pellets, can travel though walls, windows or any other housing material and still kill a person on the other side. Make sure you get some training and advise of a Certified Firearms instructor not only  to increase your safety and proficiency with your weapon of choice, but to help you with the weighty legal aspects of this topic as well.

I think you should have several. A Mossburg 590 12 guage is good. You should have a simi auto hand gun, and either an AR 15 or a AK-47.

The first thing you need to do is look at the primer on the bullet to see how hard the firing pin is hitting it. If it isn't make a dent then the firing pin may be dirty and it is not hitting the primer hard enough. You might want to try different ammo too. Most likely the problem is the firing pin or bad primers on the bullets.

Don't clean it.  The lead buildup will stabilize the accuracy of the air rifle and help to maintain close groups.  \nIf you think there is something wrong, and you are forced to clean the thing, spring for a regular airgun cleaning kit.  It will have the right size rod and patches for the .17 cal barrel.\nGood luck!

I have a glock 22.  Listen, to take the weapon apart, please make sure it is not loaded.  W/ finger OFF of the trigger, remove the mag.  Then with the finger off of the trigger, lock the slide back to the rear, the round in the chamber should pop out.  make sure the round is out of the weapon by looking and physically checking.  Return the slide and decock the weapon pointing away from you and in a safe direction.  Using your first finger and your thumb pull down the two metal tabs on the left and right side of the weapon, at the same time slide back the slide until it comes all the way off.  You should be able to remove all the parts of the weapon then.
