Need help.
Found a stripped 1903 receiver in my junkbox and decided to put together the missing parts. I have no experience with Springfield and I got problems with the ejector. I put the ejector in place, install the pin (with slotted head), but the ejector has a play back and forth. Is this correct or the assembly is requiring the involvment of other parts?
Looks like everything US Army changed from the Mauser design is wrong or plain stupid.
