Yes my sweet little 28 gauge Remington express was having ejection problems.Seems that a lot of new 870 express's are in the same boat.
Shoot a round or two and then gun won't eject,hell you can't even pull the forearm back.
Anyway google is your friend and this guy gave me the cure.
Just passing this along incase anyone else has ejecting problems with an express.

I heard whispers that Remington was having quality control issues with the Marlin product line, looks like that has spread to the Remington line also. I am told that they lost a lot of experienced people when they moved Marlin to their own Remington facilities. If you had returned the shotgun to Remington they would have fixed it. Last brand new from the dealer shotgun I bought was a Mossberg 500 in 1984, I prefer vintage firearms, and I am cheap, used is good enough for commercial sport firearms. I save the big money for milsurps.
