20 Gage Redlable Stuck ejectors

My ejectors have been sticking. I have kept end them lubed but they still intermittently stick. What's the trick to get them working dependably? Do I need to take them apart? Disassembly sounds like a nightmare.
 
In my (limited) experience, when you have something mechanical that works sometimes and doesn't work sometimes is likely to be caused by something interfering with that action. In the case of firearms moving parts, that interference is frequently caused by gunk.

A moving part that is not free to move can't do its job.
 
I'd remove the fore end and barrels, and then use spray brake or carb cleaner around the extractors.

If you have an air compressor, use it to blow around them too

After that's done, apply some of this:

Fluid Film is a solvent free, lanolin based rust/corrosion preventive and lubricant that provides long term protection and lubrication for all metal surfaces.

If you can't get Fluid Film, use a good Silicone lube on the extractors
