Do Handi shotguns have ejectors or extractors?
« on: September 03, 2007, 12:09:52 PM »
I have an old Handi Shotgun that has an ejector. Do newer shotguns have ejectors or extractors on them?

So far, they still have ejectors, but their plan is to eventually use all extractors, including rimfires. Whether they stick to that plan is unknown, time will tell.

The very great majority, if not everyone else, agrees with you KYBOY....<><....:)

That is the only thing I do not like about my BC Carbine, extractors. :'(

Why ? thats what i'd like to know.. shotguns and rimfires just function better with ejectors. is it a manufacturing thing, make all barrels work the same, somehow reducing costs ?

I'd be downright upset if my USH had an extractor.  As it is I can, on a good morning, drop 2 deer from the same group*.  I couldn't do that if I had to manually pull the empty out of the chamber...

*With two shots, that is.  One day I swear I could've dropped 2 with one shot, but one was too small so I passed on the opportunity. :)

I've done that, shot and killed two deer with one shot. It was a once in a lifetime event i'm sure, lol ..
and having the ejector does make for nice and smooth follow up shots..
