  1. As I recall, slide the ejector plate all the way forward into the grooves of the receiver, then feed the spring in through the hole towards the back of the receiver. When it's fully inserted, hook the forward end of the spring on the tab at the front of the plate. At least that's how I remember it.

     

    Is that spring broken or kinked? Based on the photo, I'd replace that as well.

     

    Spring is a little out of sorts. man it is hard trying to find any part in stock. They only stock the parts you don't need. had this eagle since the 90's and this is the 1st screwup so I can't bash it too much. LOL. Found the ejector out in the midwest

     

    Is that ejector suppossed to move freely like i think it should? If no,t I may have to file one edge of it cause it is very very tight

     

    Thanks again

    Well, first, this is probably a 'smith problem that an owners manual isn't going to help you with. Obviously, upon pulling the trigger the shell release is supposed to activate and allow one out of the magazine onto the carrier. Apparently you have an interface problem between the trigger mechanism and the shell release.

    First thing I would do is pop the pin, pull the trigger mechanism out and make sure the trigger mechanism is cleaned and lubricated, then carefully reinstall it. When you put it back in, you'll need to push in the bolt release button so the shell release latch will be positioned properly. Look at the bolt release button when you push up on the bottom latch. It should pop out a little, indicating that the release has pivoted away from the magazine. Recock it then do the same by pulling the trigger. The same thing should happen. If not, there's a problem between the trigger mechanism and the release.

     

    First pic show the bolt closed with no shell in mag tube. Next one slows what happens when i insert a shell into the mag tube. the button depresses in and comes back towards the stock like it is locking the shell in the tube. only way to get shell released is to push the button forward with your fingernail. Once shell is released it comes out ready to be loaded into the chamber and the button returns to the middle position and pops out nice like it is supposed to. Sooo... i will go into the receiver to see if i can see anything.

     

    thanks for the reply!!!

  3. Salutations to all as I just enrolled and found this valuble site. i inherited this gun from my dad and first of all no manual. BIG problem

     

    second of all, when i went to shoot it it did not perform. I loaded 1 shell in the chamber, pushed the bolt release and let her slam home as I am suppossed to. It fired and ejected that shell but never drew another shell out of the magazine tube. The only way i can get a shell out of it is to push the button and then it will release a shell out of the tube

     

    Anyone with any ideas?

     

    I don't know if i am doing something wrong or the darn thing is broke. I have been a waterfowler all my life and owned various brands of shotguns. once owned a Benelli SBE when they first came out. I can't for the life of me figure this out and not having a manual to go inside the gun really irritates me. I called Benelli and was more or less pushed off the phone saying we have no parts, no manuals and don't work on them

     

    Thanks for any help anyone can provide
