The ejector on the bottom barrel got stuck 3 times and the top barrel got stuck once. That's a little concerning since I only went through 1 box of shells. I guess I'll let y'all know how well the company deals with the problem.
1st:
Clean and use some choke grease or shooters choice on the ejector rods....I haven't doone it but having them polished migh help too.
My son and I both have the Yildiz, he has the cheaper one and I bought the expensive one, the MX clays, used. The extractors tend to stick with the cheap Winchester ammo and some of the remington cheap stuff as well. I think it might be the thin low brass (aluminum or tin) cases.....They swell up and don't want to pop out. Briley in Houston does the warranty work for Yildiz here in the states. You might try a little polishing of the chamber for the first 1/2 inch with a very fine sand paper and I put a little shooters choice on my finger and just lightly wipe the chambers before I shoot. You might want to run a bore snake through it every 50 rounds or so when you shoot the cheap stuff as well.
This is a common issue with them.....but concidering the price, is like getting 24 cases of ammo free over a Browning.
There is a good source of Yildiz info here:

Hope it helps!
I have no problems with Rio ammo BTW.
They are brass coated steel cased.......
