    Ejection Leaf

    The ejection leaf on my 1910 Ross has been worn? or modified so that it will not eject a cartridge. It is held by a blind pin that quick sheared off when I tried to pull it. Is there some slick way to either extend the leaf or remove the pin (diamond hard almost)? thanks for your help.

    A Collector's View - The SMLE Short Magazine Lee Enfield 1903-1989. It is 300 8.5x11 inch pages with 1,000+ photo’s, most in color, and each book is serial-numbered.  Covering the SMLE from 1903 to the end of production in India in 1989 it looks at how each model differs and manufacturer differences from a collecting point of view along with the major accessories that could be attached to the rifle. For the record this is not a moneymaker, I hope just to break even, eventually, at $80/book plus shipping.  In the USA shipping is $5.00 for media mail.

    The Ejector on the Ross Rifle is spring-powered.

    Have you checked the SPRING?

    You might not have to mess with the Ejector itself.

    Hopefully, anyway.....

    Good luck!

    You need to drive out the trigger axis pin. It's about 3/16 diameter and tapered on one end. Then the trigger will come off, and you can look up into the boss on on the ejector side and see the blind pin that the ejector pivots on. It is held in place by the trigger axis pin. With a pin punch you can then tap the pin down and remove the ejector.

    As mentioned by Smellie, you may have lost the small coil spring that keeps the ejector against the bolt. Should be easy to find something that will fit.
