Default Stoeger Condor Supreme/Dlx

Guys,
I bought my brand new, first O/U Condor Supreme 12ga from Galyan's 3 or 4 weeks ago. I took it pheasant hunting for few weekends and I got a second barrel misfired, of course it happened when you really needs that 2nd shot.. . (I used Remington steel 3in magnum #4, 31/2 dram, Win steel 23/4#3 –lead #5,6,71/2,8, Fe.loce… #5 23/4 – seems like it does not care what it wants to misfire…) I tried few more times at trap/doubles shooting; it looks like its randomly misfiring second barrel (it does not mater which I select to shoot first (I got selective trigger model). It does not look like it shifting it to safety either… Like I said, it’s my first O/U and I do not know how it supposes to switch to the second shot but think it mechanical/recoil. Looks like in the case when second shot does not go off, I can ease my finger a little and then squeeze trigger again, which makes it shoot in most cases. However, on other double shot I just squeeze ones – it shoots first barrel , then I squeezing a little more and it shoots the second one. I am sorry for a dummy question, but how do you suppose to shoot these o/u? Or I just got a bad gun. I talked to guy in galyan’s and they can send it for warranty service but can not comment on my question… Looks like guy was more into fishing… . I like how it points and would not want to get rid of it if problem is fixable (if the is a problem at all….)

Thanks
