A well cared for Parker, Lefever or other well made make will operate indefinitely shooting WHATEVER number of [proper] shells, if accompanied by good maintainence/inspection/adjustment and replacement of key springs.
Abusing one says nothing about it's 'normal function.'

Are you from another planet who does not understand English? As Dean said, no one is talking about a design flaw. I did not own the gun for its first 90 years so I can't tell what was shot in it. If the ejectors don't function, barrels are loose and gaps exist between the frame and breech, it is "OFF FACE." I never shot the gun for that reason. People like you are the reason I quit posting for a long time. Guess I'll stop again.
