I do like ejectors, but in my LC 12g, they cause the gun to be difficult to break and actually spring back the barrels to the point the shells can't be put in without holding the gun open against the springs. Maybe it's out of time.

On a hunting gun, a well designed, properly working ejector system is an advantage to me during times that a quick reload is needed. I cannot believe that ejectors would be a detriment to removing shells from the chambers without letting them hit the ground. I have never had a problem catching shells from ejectors in my hands. In fact, I find that they make it easier to ensure getting them out without dropping them.

However, I would not hold it against a particularly attrative vintage gun if it didn't have them.
