Hi folks, i recently got my hands on a Max-1 L/F in 38 super. It has a broken extractor (no big deal), but...the ejector is broken. The question is....are these ejectors press-fit or soldered in ? Id like some advice before i do some real damage. Thanks for the info in advance.

I don't know. They have a tab a little like a half joiner biscuit, and that makes me suspect soldering. The replacements are available here.

The Max 1 is now made in the Philippines,Eagle Imports markets it here and you could contact them for information.In any case if you don't see evidence of soldering it is likely press fit and you can try extracting it the conventional way.

This raises the question of whether this is a Spanish Llama or a Philippine Llama. The Spanish guns were *mostly* 1911 clones, but they had some peculiarities. The Philippine Llamas, on the other hand, are 100% 1911 clones. If it's a new (Philippine) pistol, the ejector should be pinned, with a 1/16" pin that runs through from one side to the other just back from the front of the extractor (through the front leg).polyphemus said:The Max 1 is now made in the Philippines,Eagle Imports markets it here and you could contact them for information.In any case if you don't see evidence of soldering it is likely press fit and you can try extracting it the conventional way.
Where was it made?
It is definitely NOT a standard 1911 part as it is seen in Unclenick's post #2If it's a new (Philippine) pistol, the ejector should be pinned, with a 1/16" pin that runs through from one side to the other just back from the front of the extractor (through the front leg).

One might think OP would've noticed the hold down cross pin,absent that he asked his question,Eagle Imports has a replacement ejector for that model,standard 1911 design.
Different country of origin,different ejector.

It would be helpful if you could post a picture showing the solder spots.
