Wif Posted February 14, 2011 Share Posted February 14, 2011 I love my 94 marlin, but I am annoyed with all the brass being thrown forward. Is it possible to re-time the ejector by filing the the "hook" face back a little towards the butt to delay ejection and throw the brass more to the side?

I. M. Crossdraw, SASS# 8321 Posted February 14, 2011 Share Posted February 14, 2011 Straighten the bend of the flat spring of the ejector, that will help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cowboy Rick, SASS #49739L Posted February 14, 2011 Share Posted February 14, 2011 Taking tension off the ejector and extractor springs will keep your brass a lot closer to you. You can't really change the timing to eject it later, because there is a new round coming up on the carrier that needs room. Marlin has this pretty close already.

Wif I've often wondered how I can have the brass eject more to the side. I'm not going to win any shooting contest, so what I do when I shoot my Marlin OR my '73 is this. As I am picking up the rifle and bringing it to my shoulder, I am also takeing one careful step back and I shoot from that position. That way I'm assured of get most, if not all my brass picked up and returned. Otherwise the brass, especially from the Marlin, will eject out in front of the props.
