Basser15 Report post Posted September 12, 2012 I could really use some help figuring out an ejector issue on my rifle. The gun: Weatherby Mark V 7mm Mag Issue: two weeks ago the bolt got dropped while being cleaned and the ejector pin and spring came out. I was able to get them back in as it appeared that the bracing pin that runs perpendicular to is just slid over and allowed it to displace the spring and ejector pin. Over this past weekend I was at the range finishing sighting the gun in about every 3-5 shots the pin would come back out, which would not allow for the next round to be chambered. The spring only came out with the pin once. Do I need to take it to a gunsmith or is there an easy fix for me? My bull hunt is in 3 weeks so I'm obviously wanting to figure something out rather quickly. Here is the pin in question (which is in place right now) Here is where the small pin that holds in the ejector pin and spring is at. Please Help!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Take it to a Smith and make sure you have a back up gun you trust with you. i have several available if you like. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I've got back ups too but this is my Grandfather's gun and it's going to kill a big bull this season! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
