Most push feed mechanisms use a spring loaded plunger type of ejector situated at the breech face, and this system ejects the spent casing as soon as the case mouth clears the ejection port. [9] Most controlled feed mechanisms use a fixed mechanical ejector attached to the receiver, which results in the bolt having to be pulled all or almost ...
Most modern extractors are forceful enough to completely eject the casing from the gun (i.e. integrating the function of an ejector), but some require the user to manually remove spent cartridges.
