Ejectors VS Extractors

[David Hamilton]

As Bruce says, the ejectors are about rapid loading. Duck blinds, Driven shoots, intense moments on the hunt, these are the what make all "gismos" necessary. David

Bruce and David: I can see the point of lots of action and the cold. I will find out about the cold soon enough. I routinely chase roosters up to the minus 30C days (22 below zero F). Seldom do I get birds birds birds. The couple times that has happened, I ended up watching in amazement. One time, with a pump, I was in a good spot on a cold day and was trying fast reloading with gloved hands after a shot while still paying attention to potential birds. That was a mistake. Ended up shoving a shell into the magazine backwards. Spent the next 10 - 15 minutes dismantling the gun to get that round out. Didn't know that could happen. My buddies carried on chuckling about the error and shooting away. As in a lot of life there's a reason behind old addages. Haste can make Waste.

Cheers,

I like ejectors, they do add weight to the gun but there is no doubt they are handy when you are in a hurry. Yes now and again a few empties get away but I make uo for that by picking up any others I see kicking around. The only major downfall to ejectors that I see is the cost. You can buy a much nicer extractor gun for the same money as an ejector gun. Just my 2 cents.
