remington 1894 question

[charlie cleveland]

i have a remington a grade 10 ga hammerless with ejectors that i m haveing trouble with..right barrel fires ok but the left will not fire..when empty and dry fireing the gun it seems weak when fired it barely hits the primer on a loade shell...also when you break the gun open any time the ejecter will eject even when not fired....anybody got any ideas...charlie

[CraigThompson]

Is that the one that was on Gunbroker for awhile ? Had slightly pitted barrels And they had a starting bid of $595 on it ?

[charlie cleveland]

no its not the same gun i got this gun from the kittery trading post some time back..worked good every time i shot it till recently...any ideas....charlie

Charlie
Any chance you have two unrelated problems ? That will mess with your head, sounds like they happened at the same time but it just may be coincidence. I would ignore the ejector and examine the firing spring first.
Just a thought, Tom

[Dave Noreen]

Broken or breaking mainspring.
