there is a survey here somewhere where the incidence of breakage is tallied by individual part. Working from the ol' rusty memory, Ejector was #1, then F.P., extractor, and GRIPS! Search for it!

All the parts mentioned in the survey are easy enough to swap for shooting. But at some point, it may be worth it to just get ahold of a mix-master shooter.
