Anyone know what they call the piece in the P17 bolt release assembly that flips the shell out of the action? The small section that acts as a spring is broke off.
Thanks.
 
It's called the ejector, the most breakable part on the Enfield, if not the only one.

In the past is was a common practice to replace the leaf ejector spring with a small coil spring. I did the mod on a P14 a few years ago. It was a simple job. IIRC, I cut the notches with a Dremel wheel and used a piece of a ball-point pen spring.
