The Brownells Remington 870 Ejector Spring Rivet Cutter features a hardened steel cutter for easy removal of broken ejector springs, simplifying your gunsmithing tasks. This hollow-end mill fits in a drill press and spot faces the front rivet to take off just the peened area. The tool often lets you re-peen the existing rivet and eliminate rebluing the receiver.
The cutter features a steel shaft with hardened steel cutter, measuring 2 1/2″ (6.3cm) long with a .31″ (7.8mm) shaft diameter. It can be driven in either a drill press, milling machine or hand drill. For Remington 870 owners facing ejector spring failure, this specialized tool eliminates the need for costly gunsmith labor while preserving the receiver’s original finish.
Best practice is to preserve the rivet by reducing the diameter of the stake, remove the ejector spring, install the new ejector and stake it in place. Whether you’re a professional gunsmith or serious 870 enthusiast, the Brownells Remington 870 Ejector Spring Rivet Cutter is an essential addition to your workbench for reliable ejector spring maintenance and replacement.
