I bought a used Model 72 a while back and have now learned that it missing some pieces. It will feed and fire but the case stays on the bolt when cycled.

After looking at some diagrams ive figured Im missing the ejector parts. Any ideas of where I can find some replacement parts??
 
Rifles were originally built in West Germany by Erma Werke. The ejector is a bent piece of steel that fits a recess in the pot metal receiver casting prior to the steel receiver cover being put on. Parts are difficult at best to locate. If you can find a schematic, and are handy, you may be able to make one.
Someone with more knowledge of the Henry line may be able to chime in as I thought that company was producing a copy of the 72 and parts may be similar.
