Busdriver,
As promised here are some dimensions/photos of the A1 ejector pin. The ejector is .071 of an inch in diameter,3/8 of an inch long approx. and lives in the receiver at a length of 1/4 of an inch. You can see the ejector pin in this group of photos.
(http://www.pbase.com/tigweld/a1_ejector_pin) Thought you could best see how everything lives in postion with this A1 receiver ,which I have the barrel off in the process of refinishing. (The A1 I'm building from spare parts).

p.s. Was also missing the ejector pin on an A1 I picked up. I used the shank off a #49 Number Drill which measures .0715 of an inch diameter and cut to the length needed. Have problems, I'll try to help.

Click on any photo for the closeup view.

Added another closeup of the end of the ejector pin. Note the small bevel/angle on the ejector.
