I recently acquired a new a "Garden Gun." A single barrel .410 by Harrington and Richardson Arms Co., Worcester, Ma. It's a Bay State model which was their "economy model." Not sure why but the "economy model" has a checkered walnut butt stock and forend. As well as an ejector. The gun cleaned up very nicely for a gun made in 1940.

Now for my question. The entire ejector mechanism appears to be located in the barrel lump and I do not see anything else that interacts with that mechanism. The ejector is activated every time the gun is opened. Anyone know if this gun is functioning correctly before I start messing with the ejector mechanism?

Thanks,
Dennis
