Re: automatic ejectors needed on a Double?

In reply to:

Sanchez commented this in a recent Guns&Ammo article.He said that a Double without autoejectors was just a "piece of iron".

Exactly how much faster is such a double




I don't agree that non ejector doubles are just a piece of iron.
However I do agree that ejector double rifles are superior in certain situations.
I'm talking about hunting situations, not shooting range, gun room, or forum situations.

The few doubles that I currently own are all regularly taken hunting and all have ejectors.

Many of those who don't like ejectors are not using a gun handling technique suitable for the ejector system IMO.
The fact that many have difficulty closing the gun and are losing fired cases suggests this.

I would never pass up a double simply because it did not have ejectors but if I was having a new double built you can bet that ejectors would be high on the must have list.

How much faster depends on the type of hunting situation and how well the shooter can work an ejector gun.

In reply to:

Is there any device available to manually assist with the removal of the two spent cartridges from a double without autoextractors




Mickey once designed a device to help cure flinching with big bore rifles.
Cannot remember exactly how it worked but I seem to remember that it used a large fishook located in very close proximity to the shooters nutsack!
Perhaps you could adapt this system to your "cartridge removal device" somehow?
