Back in the '90s, I picked up a P-14 at the PGCA show for a friend here. The thing was in EXCELLENT condition... except for the missing ejector that I didn't notice. I went to the OGCA show to get him an ejector. I couldn't find one but a guy had a P-14 action. I asked him if he'd sell the ejector. He made a counter offer of the whole thing for not much more than the ejector. Now my friend has an ejector and I have a sporterized P-14 action that might some day end up as a hunting rifle.
BTW - My friend's P-14 is EXTREMELY accurate, out to 600 yards with Greek ball.
