Just to add a bit to this history for the record. Holland claimed in the above Perks trial that there was little demand for "ejector" guns until 1886. Here are three Reilly labels from 1884, 1885, 1886. "Ejector" doesn't appear until the last label - 1886 - labels and advertisements match history. (and you know what - I still don't like SxS ejectors to this day)
