I own Parker no. 79355 that went back in 1913 to have ejectors retrofitted. It cost $25 to have it done.

I can't imagine the work it would be to retro fit for ejectors.
This gun has a plugged hole ( through the last zero of 97000) on the forend iron. Wouldn't think Parker would have done that.

This reminds me of my non-Parker ejectors.

Pictures Dr. Gaddy sent me of Moran & Wolfersperger ejectors --





A Nov. 17, 1906, ad for M & W Ejectors --



by then being fitted by Gus Habich and Moran & Wolfersperger had parted ways and as can be seen in the other ad Mathew E. Moran was now working with F.B. Stannard.

OK, about those "first" ejector guns. I owned #114,370, a CHE that, according to the SB, is the thirteenth ejector gun in that serial number range including the two lower numbered guns to be mentioned. #109,826 and #108,043 are also in the same October 1902 era, but out of sequence of the first in sequence serial numbers which begin at #114,201 according to my order book research as well as the Serialization Book entries. Those two lower number guns were probably older guns that happened to be available for experimentation. There could be the odd ejector gun in order books previous to the ones I examined, but that is unlikely since the stock books for the period are available and are posted in the SB. For all practical purposes, #114,201 is the earliest production ejector gun. #108,041 and #109,827 are listed as ejector guns in the SB. It is odd that these two numbers are so close to the early ejector guns I mentioned earlier, so I suspect a posting error in the Serialization Book.
