How to Repair a Bent Ejector Rod on a S&W Revolver

[ntrudr800]

Hooah! Mr. Potterfield just helped me fix a loose ejector rod on my S&W Model 60-15! I ...grew some... and tried it myself. Used a tiny bit of Blue Loctite, tightened it up.

All I need to do is go shoot it extensively at the range to be sure it is properly tightened. But I am sure it should work now. No more locked up actions, "...and that's the way it is."

I hate Larry Potterfield! He makes every gunsmith job look easy. By easy I mean if you have all the tools and know how. Guys like Bob Villa with it.

Very nice if you have a drill press, a dial indicator, vice grip, etc. I think it would just be easier for most to simply replace the rod.

@JBSauce Unless you have an old S&W like me and they no longer have a spare ejector rod :/ I've been looking for a way to get my straightened and this video really helps. The last video Midway USA did used a drill press which I don't have access too.

@Jrhoney Really? I thought they would have one...well, I guess this is really relevant for you then!

@JBSauce He didn't say you could fix it with a rock and some duct tape.
