Shop gremlins
« on: March 29, 2012, 06:04:57 AM »
Slicking up a SB-1 the other night put it up for the night and started the next morning and the ejector spring is gone :o looked high and low for it even crawled on all fours and found nothing,the little devils took it in the night, so I tried a 1911 firing pin spring and it fits after cutting down and will eject a shell but have not tried it to see if it will after firring.

I still have a sear spring for a 1895 Remington double ejector iron loose in the shop.. It escaped while disassembling the ejectors.. the ejector spring also went awol but turned itself in after a short period of hiding,,not the sear spring.......

You would think as many guns that I have taken apart and had springs fly off and being in a shop that is only 12x20 you would find them but noooo, the bad part is that they usually turn up after you order and get new parts.

I think there are around 2.60 and about 4.00 shipping. The spring I used will eject a un-fired shell [20 ga.] I wont be abel to shoot it till I get my stock frm. scratchmark.
