Greetings all. This is more or less a request for help, in the form of photos, diagrams, or in a perfect world, parts. I have an Ithaca Crass Ejector gun, that is missing the parts in the barrel lump that make up the ejector. I am hoping that someone out there has the same gun and would be kind enough to take photos of their complete mechanism, either assembled or disassembled, such that I may be able to make up the correct parts. From my research so far, there appears to have been more than one version of the ejector, and I have yet to come up with photos or diagrams/patents of the version in this gun. Photos to follow. Any advise is greatly appreciated, and thank you in advance.

I cannot say that I am very familiar with crass ejector guns, but your gun looks like an extractor gun that has had its barrel lug modified.

Or were crass ejector systems wholely housed in the barrel breech?

Do you have access to "The Ithaca Gun Company from the beginning" by W.C. Snyder, second edition.

B.Dudley- from what I can see with this gun- yes it appears that they were, or at least in this gun they were.

skeettx - Thanks for the heads up, have checked all the normal parts sources for ejector parts, without much luck. Started to call all the 'other' parts sources as well, including the Ithaca specialist in Ithaca NY and others. All coming up empty. Can't see the photos in the Parker gun thread, but if it is the same as an old archived thread, then I have seen this thread as well. I do not have access to the book, unfortunately, and from what I can see it is quite expensive. I have yet to see an ejector Crass, or any Crass that looks like this one honestly. They all look like this: https://www.gunbroker.com/item/771767896

The forend does not have the split ejector hammers??
I find the pictures difficult to interpret.
Is there an empty hole or is something in the hole?

Mike

wonder if this is still available for parts??

Woodsbum,

The ejector mechanism is totally contained in the barrel lugs and the frame. Hopefully the pictures I have will show you what you need. The extra screw in the frame normally identifies an ejector model on the Crass & Lewis models.







More to follow,

John

More pics,

The parts are quite fragile and ejection is weak.








I am not brave enough to hear it down on short notice. I have three Ithaca doubles apart on the bench now and too many apart at once gets me nervous.

Cell phone cameras are your friend, for this type thing.

John- Fantastic! Thanks for the photos. This looks like the same mechanism that I have. I understand regarding disassembly, and will eagerly await a time when you can pull the system apart, and take photos of the individual parts. Thank you!
