would there be any advantage or disadvantage to unloading the spring before dis-assembly? Would the screw back out any easier?
Yes, and no. The screw backs out fairly easy either way, Now when I put the bolt together you will have to decock it to get the first few threads started, then I cock them.Quote:

Any tips?
We dis-assembled in order to clean up the innards. We got a lot of gunk out and cleaned the spring on the ejector.
Alas, the problem remains.
Thanks in advance.

There's a simple fix, you need a bigger ball. ;D There are other people that may be able to elaborate on what size and where to get it. But I believe that this is the answer.

Can I do this m'self?

Easy to do yourself
Take the bolt out, put it in a one gallon plastic bag
Put your hands in the bag, slide the extractor out. Ball and spring may come flying out, hence the bag
Reverse procedure to install
Two or three minutes tops the first time you do it
Thanks, no bolt dis-assembly required?

I use a small flat blade screw driver. I take the blade and lay it flat against the bolt head behind the ejector, I then use the tip to push the extractor and hold pressure on the ball bearing. I then slowly take pressure off the ball bearing, and you should be done.
Thank you. I'll report back with results. :P :-\
The extractor has about 4,000 rounds under its belt.
Maybe I should replace it also.
Does the proprietor of this site sell such things ( tryin' to keep the $$ in the family)
BMT
No, they do not, they just sell advertising. One place that does is Sharp Shooter Supply a site sponsor. They also have the larger ball bearings in stock. May save you some time of hunting down the ball bearing, and measuring them.Quote:
