Has anyone every replaced an 870 ejector?

Mine has a crack on the front portion near the rivet

I've replaced them (PITA). That one was broken.

You need special punches.

The only thing you need to be aware of is that the rivet is inserted from one end and is "kinda" tapered (teeth).

Look closely at the hole on both side... you want to push it out on the side where you can see the teeth have already made marks

Good luck!

I just changed it on my 870 last fall after 21 years of service. Not a difficult job, took me about a half hour to drill off the old rivet and re-stake the new rivet. Brownells has the tools.

For the few dollars, send it to Arwen Ace.
