I own a Stevens 520 break down that i absolutely love shooting. I have a question about the Inertia block on this shotgun. Is the inertia block part of the breech block of this shotgun.
I have shot this shotgun many time and it cycles great. Kicks like a mule. I would like to replace worn parts. Have seen the u tube videos on this gun. but can not find any info. on the inertia block for this shotgun anywhere. any help is appreciated.

The 520 is a Long Recoil action, not Inertia. I’m not sure what an Inertia action is, but it’s different. Currently offered by Benelli and Franchi???
Wait, isn’t the 520 a pump?

I looked at the parts list in a factory catalog and there is nothing about an inertia block, I do not think these ever had that feature. I know early Marlin hammer pumps had an inertia action released added early on because of the possibility of a hang fire blowing the bolt out the rear of the gun. The inertial block was part of this and it released an action lock on recoil, if there was a misfire that might result in a hang fire the action had to be manually unlock to open it which they hoped delayed it long enough in case of a hang fire.
