Coyote Kid, SASS#54714 Posted November 8, 2023 Share Posted November 8, 2023 I had a failure to eject the empty at match today and ate a minor safety oh well. It happened again on the last stage, but TO saw the shell start out and bounce back in. Got home and tore the rifle apart to clean it and found my one piece left ejector was broke in two pieces. I tried to find one on-line and everyone was sold out. Anyone have a source or an idea where I can buy one?????? Thanks, Coyote Kid Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eyesa Horg Posted November 8, 2023 Share Posted November 8, 2023 Sorry I don't remember where, but recently saw a one piece machined ejector, looked like a normal Marlin part. I'll come back if I can find it again. Well that turned out to be easy! https://www.wildwestguns.com/product/bear-proof-ejector/ Just noticed that it's for Remlins. Maybe it can be fitted to a JM.?!?

Thanks, Coyote Kid The Ejector that Warden posted on Ebay is a two piece and will work real good in your Marlin. You quoted 'one piece' which are some of the very OLD Ejectors. Assuming your 1894 has the Ejector plug 'hole' on the left side of the receiver, the 2 piece will work great. If not, let us know. ..........Widder Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those Bear Proof ejectors have a reputation of being very stiff, which makes the bolt harder to slide across it. But on the good side, if his receiver has the Ejector plug hole, it will work. Coyote Kid: if by chance your Ejector was a 2-piece (ejector body with spring squeezed in a slot), its possible just to order yourself the 'Ejector SPRING'. Of course, its only a small piece of steel, probably with a slight bend in it. You'll have to tap the 'bend end' into the slot at the bottom of the ejector body. ..........Widder Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coyote Kid, SASS#54714 Posted November 9, 2023 Author Share Posted November 9, 2023 Thanks Widder. I may have mislead y'all. The ejector is 2 piece, but the spring part became separated from the plug hole part and the tip broke off. If I could find the spring part and replace it I would try that first. The metal part was polished up nicely when Slick did his MAGIC on the rifle. Where could I find the spring part?Thanks, Coyote Kid Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Warden Callaway Posted November 9, 2023 Share Posted November 9, 2023 Some 10 years ago MidwayUSA carried a multitude of Marlin parts. Now they only list a few funky after market parts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Widder, SASS #59054 Posted November 9, 2023 Share Posted November 9, 2023 Coyote Kid, Places to check for these type parts are..... in no specific order: Numrich Arms Jack First Brownells Midway Its slightly possible that if you call Marlin and explain your dilemma, they might send you a spring. Hope this helps. ..........Widder Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You put a good video above. Years back, I ordered a complete unit (Ejector and spring) for about $8 from Brownells. Right before Marlin sold out to Remington, I order a couple and they charged me $8 for the Ejector body and $8 more for the spring. I don't know why they got so greedy. ..........Widder Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Warden Callaway Posted November 9, 2023 Share Posted November 9, 2023 When youngest son was down, I took him up and showed him my Marlin parts box - a plastic assortment tray. Told him there is a $1,000 dollar in parts in this box. Pulled out another with Colt and Uberti handgun parts. Someday he'll probably have to settle our estate.

Coyote Kid, SASS#54714 Posted November 9, 2023 Author Share Posted November 9, 2023 Widder, you said the spring would need to be tapped in with a hammer, but when I put the old in it just falls out. Too loose? The complete assembly on shop ruger is 4$14.95. EBAY for the spring is way high. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Widder, SASS #59054 Posted November 9, 2023 Share Posted November 9, 2023 The spring USUALLY has a small 'hump' on them that make them VERY tight. You shouldn't be able to push it in with finger pressure but rather have to use a small brass hammer to 'tap' it in. I have seen a couple without the hump and those wriggle around too much. Call me if ya want..... 865 /696-1996 You would be wise to buy the complete unit for the $14 bucks. Heck, Lumpy got enough money to buy that for ya........ ..........Widder Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Warden Callaway Posted November 9, 2023 Share Posted November 9, 2023 At $14, get two. That part is the one most likely to get lost. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My Ejection system is built into the bottom of the bolt and when the bolt comes back, it compresses air into an internal gas tube system. At the rearward most movement of the bolt, the compressed air releases at a valve located on the left front section of the bolt and 'blows' the empty case out of the action. Its basically a 'fail-safe' system. Now, you have to guess if I really modified my ejection system to work in this manner, OR..... did I not. ..........Widder Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coyote Kid, SASS#54714 Posted November 10, 2023 Author Share Posted November 10, 2023 Would that modification put you in the steampunk category? I did order the part from Ruger shop. We'll see how it works. Coyote Kid Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And for sure, a 'Lumpyometer'. And how about a 'Coyotestunner' on my sights. And lets not forget the 'Horgeye feeding system'. Should work out great. ..........Widder Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Griff Posted November 10, 2023 Share Posted November 10, 2023 I'm curious as to the "left ejector" description? My Marlin doesn't have a right one, although the one on the left is correct, is mine somehow defective? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Griff Posted November 11, 2023 Share Posted November 11, 2023 Surely you realize that clip was reversed... Big clue, I've never seen a Dillon with the primer catcher on the left side. Even if there was a left-handed Marlin 1894, it would only have one ejector... so no reason to refer to it by location. But... you do you. I'll still point out the absurdity of referring to the 45 Colt by inserting the unnecessary and yes, absurd adjective "long" in its nomenclature.

Coyote Kid, SASS#54714 Posted November 11, 2023 Author Share Posted November 11, 2023 If I had the right ejector, I wouldn't need a new one. But alas I am left with a defective ejector. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
