I have a Browning Auto Rifle that has a stuck ejector. The ejector is flush with the bolt face. I have removed the pin that keeps the ejector and spring in place. It will not come out. Any ideas on how to remove the ejector?? I would bet the spring is broken.
Best way I know is to dribble Kroil or Liquid Wrench in to the cross pin hole with the front of the bolt down. Usually it will work its way past the gunk or corrosion and start to show up around the ejector. Set the bolt up on its face and let it go over night. Usually it will be freed enough that you can push it in with a punch, although some times you have to whack that punch with a hammer. Once you get it free, it will usually come out forward, if not, push it all the way back with a punch and look at the inside of the hole. You will probably see some rust or corrosion so CAREFULLY scrape it out with a dental pick that has been flattened at the tip. Worst comes to worst, you can fill the back side of the hole with Kroil and apply a soft flame to the front of the bolt. Just heat until the Kroil smokes! Do not get it so hot that it changes colors; you DO NOT want to screw up the heat treat. You can always put it in to a 300 degree oven for about a half hour. After it’s hot, carefully follow the preceding steps.
