Personally, I would leave it as an ejector gun with Brad's suggested repair. At least that way, it will pop the spent cartridges into your waiting hand.

Will this also occur in 20 ga. repros. and other gauges or is it unique to the 28?

I had the same problem with the
CSMC .410 BARRELS. I called them and
they sent me 2 more plates and screws.
I installed the new one and it lasted
3 shots and broke. Sent the barells to
Bill Schwartz and he installed an oversized
stop plate that he makes out of special
steel. I then called and sent pictures to
CSMC and talked to rep and they cared
less. Have since shot 500 shells no problem

Brad; Thanks to You and to all for your advice and experiences on this: I am shipping the gun today as soon as I verify Brad's shipping address.
Thank God for this wonderful site, where Parker Lovers can get advice.
Pat; I am glad you seem to have found a permanent fix for your .410 barrels.

Not a lot of metal in the dolls head of those guns. The corner of the dovetail fails and allows the stop plate to push out. I have seen this on a Meriden built 28g. before.

Brian; after looking at the gun under a pair of magnifying glasses, You are correct.
The little "reinforcing plate" looked undamaged. The "damage" appears to be the corners of the dolls-head itself.
Ah, Well.......I go to work at 5:00am, and when I return this afternoon, I will ship the gun to Batchelder for his fix which sounds logical, and efficient.

Thanks for the pictures: I have sent my 28 to Brad Batchelder for his repairs, and also asked him to make the gun an extractor by putting a screw in as he described.
I realize this takes away from the ultimate value; and will leave an heir tearing hair out, but, as I have said about guns: "If I own it, I shoot it."

A follow up: Brad Batchelder fixed my 28 Ga Repro; and it is as good as new or better.
His work, and his company were first class from the start to the finish.
I HIGHLY recommend him!
Thanks Brad!

After years of Parkers and Foxes, I equate the former to a beautiful woman with some underlying issues while the latter is lovely while requiring far less maintenance. Choose your dance partner.
