Mymwood Posted February 26, 2013 Report Share Posted February 26, 2013 (edited) I have a Beattie damascus barrel b.l.e made in 1895. Have used it every season for many years. This year, one of the ejectors snapped in half during use. Local gunshop tells me it's not repairable and needs replacement, but, not surprisingly, they are no longer made. So, I need to find someone who can make a bespoke ejector or a pair of ejectors or I face not being able to use my favourite gun again. Anyone have any contacts/tips? My budget is not unlimited Mart.

Hector Vector Posted February 26, 2013 Report Share Posted February 26, 2013 Just how broken is it? A picture would make it clear. I've just replaced a broken ejector guide pin on an AYA No.2 for a friend - easy enough fix, no need for a new part. I'd be very surprised if yours cannot be repaired. Perhaps it's just too much trouble for your local gunshop? You'd be better off taking it to a good gunsmith; I'm sure somebody will know of one in your area.

matone Posted February 26, 2013 Report Share Posted February 26, 2013 Not a problem for a real gunsmith . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Geordie Posted February 26, 2013 Report Share Posted February 26, 2013 There was an article posted the other day reguarding a company who do Laser welding. A repair on the ejector is not a problem I would think. They do a real good job too. They carry out repairs to Actions and forends etc and seem to have a good reputation.

Mymwood Posted February 26, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 26, 2013 Hi Jammer, I see you are near Bath, Could you PM me possibly? I've had a look at the Carrs site and the service they offer seems perfect, but you are a lot closer. Thanks for the tips everyone Mart.

everycal Posted March 1, 2013 Report Share Posted March 1, 2013 Speak to Wrabbitbosher. If it can be fixed he'll fix it. He's always got guns in the "trade" section so get him through there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
welshwarrior Posted March 2, 2013 Report Share Posted March 2, 2013 Give Dennis at UK Gun Repairs a ring he will fix it for you or make a new one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
