mrikirkby Posted April 28, 2013 Report Share Posted April 28, 2013 I have a Lanber ou with the top barrel not ejecting properly. I have stripped and cleaned said ejector and all is smooth running but it seems the brass cap is the part that is getting stuck ? Are these cart fussy and if so why only the top barrel ??

mrikirkby Posted April 29, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 29, 2013 What is ejector timing ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hawkfanz Posted April 29, 2013 Report Share Posted April 29, 2013 its the point at which the ejecter is tripped,it needs to be open enough so the cartridge doesn,t hit the breech face when tripped. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrikirkby Posted April 29, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 29, 2013 Ok i will start at the beginning, i was pigeon shooting the other day and noticed the top ejector was a bit week ejecting the Dan arms carts so following day i stripped the ejector and noticed it was slightly bent when held on a straight edge, so straightened it out cleaned oiled and smooth as silk. Went to east angIan game fair yesterday on the clays with there carts eley first fibres and every one got stuck in top barrel. Another strip and check and everything ok and tried it again tonight and works lovely with Kent, Dan arms, gamebore carts but not the eleys! After close inspection the eley carts are distorting/bulging around the caps when fired and getting stuck in the breech to a point the ejector is released and it just sits there until i prise it out with my fingers ! So it seems its the eley carts causing the problem. And looking at a fresh cart the plastic is bulging too where the shot is !! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi mate I have a lanber sporter delux and use eley first plastic and fibre carts when at the clay ground never had a problem with them. Could it of been a bad batch you've had rather than an ejector problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrikirkby Posted April 29, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 29, 2013 Yeah have heard of bad batches of them so could be. I don't normally use them its just they were selling them in the clay stand at the show. Seems to be fine with other carts after a bit of a clean up so fingers crossed .

mrikirkby Posted April 29, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 29, 2013 What the difference between sporter deluxe and normal sporter. Mines a sporter as it has manual safety and multi choke but don't know if its a deluxe ?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GingerCat Posted April 29, 2013 Report Share Posted April 29, 2013 Would be interested in the answer to this one myself as have no idea which lanber I have, no ejecter prob though, is the chamber clean? Might be a bit mucky and holding them a second too long.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrikirkby Posted April 29, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 29, 2013 No that is all clean the brass cap of the cart was bulging after being fired and getting wedged in the chamber that much the ejector couldnt flick it out. only happens on the eley firsts though so probably a dodgey batch of carts.

HDAV Posted April 29, 2013 Report Share Posted April 29, 2013 Bulging brass is not good...... It means the chamber is not sealing tightly on the cart!!!!! I would get it checked........ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrikirkby Posted May 2, 2013 Author Report Share Posted May 2, 2013 Ok update on the lanber its going back to gunsmith it double discharged the other night and he's going to sort ejector as well. Just hope he can work some magic on it and fix it ! Ok update on the lanber its going back to gunsmith it double discharged the other night and he's going to sort ejector as well.
