Nambu troubleshooting...

Ok, random factoids.

Mine's a '43. The only ammo I've used in it has been the "Mr. Nambu" loads, which is good ammo by all accounts. I fired about 20 rds, with 4 or 5 stovepipes. Manually cycling with snap caps is even worse - predictably enough. I'll take another squint at the extractor - however, I noticed today when playing with the gun and snap caps, that it wedged and stovepiped on the FIRST round - nothing in the chamber to start with. It did this at least twice.

How would I know if the *ejector* was right or wrong?
