"Selective Ejectors" on the Repo's.
 

Anyone know about "Selective Ejectors" on the Repo's. I found a flier/catolog and it shows they came standard on these pieces of art ! I have searched high and low and can find only a few references of such ! This is not to be confused with selective single trigers. Please see jpg.

Selective ejectors fire only when that barrel has been fired. Non-selective fire them whether that barrel has been fired or not. The only guns I have ever seen non-selective ejectors on are lower priced single-shots. As a matter of fact I have never seen a two barrel gun with non-selective ejectors. They either had selective ejectors or extractors.

Best,

Hmmm that sounds logical, but a bit too simple.
I was under the impresion, selective ejectors, meant it was capable of selecting weather you wanted the ejectors to eject or be used as extractors, I know of some shotguns that have a togle so to select either to eject or to extract ?

Joe, I understand your reasoning but Mike gives a great description of "selective automatic ejectors". I am sure there is a description of the feature that you describe but I am at a loss for the proper terminology. I know some Lefever's had the ejector cut off feature.

Thanks All, Maybe I will get more responses soon to weed this out.

I don't think there is anything to sort out. Parker reproduction and original Parker shotguns shell removal came in two ways:
1) with extractors which simply raise the shell to be removed by the shooters fingers.
2) with ejectors. The ejectors were automatic selective ejectors in that only the spent shell would kick out while a non-fired shell would remain in the chamber but lifter up similar to an extractor for easy removal.

I am 99.9% (never say never) sure that Parker never had a selective ejector as you describe.

The person that wrote up the brochure was thinking about a single selective trigger when he absent mindedly injected the word selective when listing automatic ejectors as being a standard feature. And the proof reader didn't catch it.

That's only one of the mistakes you'll find in the brochures, there are others.

joe, there is nothing more to "weed out". There is no other answer to the Parker Reproduction's ejectors. They were 'reproduced' exactly like the ejectors on the original Parkers. And they are "selective" only in that they will eject only the shell or shells that the shooter has selected to fire.
