Any of the following could be the culprit; dirty, ammunition, springs. Take it to a gun smith.
I had the same gun and same problem. I found out that because it is a older model that you have to use a little more force and speed when you eject the spent shell. It should work because i have the cheapest wal-mart shells you can get and mine works just fine.
Give it a thorough cleaning.
Any spent plastic shotgun shells (hulls) should be reusable, as long as the brass is re-sized before reloading. Paper isn't recommended, and brass casings are practically non-reloadable.
Certainly. Or, you can use a competent independent gunsmith - sounds like an easy fix. www.countrygunsmith.net
the extractor might be missing or broken The best thing you can do is take your gun to a qualified gunsmith.
The usual reason for this is because the casing usually ejects to the right. If you held the gun on your left shoulder, it would eject the spent cartridge (possibly) directly into your face or arm. Those spent shells can be rather hot......
To determine if the extractor in an Ithaca M66 shotgun is bad, check for consistent failure to eject spent shells or frequent stovepiping. Inspect the extractor for visible wear, cracks, or deformation, which can affect its grip on the shell. Additionally, test the extractor's tension by manually cycling the action and observing if it securely holds a shell in place. If these issues persist despite cleaning and lubrication, the extractor may need replacement.
Try a thorough cleaning. If it still does it, send it back to Browning with a complete detailed description of all issues.
Shell-ejecting airsoft guns tend to eject their shells using a spring loaded system. once the bolt, or slide is drawn back after firing, the spring will force the spent shell out of the gun
AE stands for Angle Eject, which was introduced in 1983. Angle Eject was designed to allow the spent cartridge casing to clear the action without banging into a scope.
I have the same question. Did you find an answer?
The lever on the front of the fore end allows you to select "high" or "low" brass shells meaning high power hunting ammunition or low power target shells. This lever adjusts the amount of gas which will be directed to the piston which cycles the action, ejecting the spent hull and loading a fresh shell.
