I found a Marlin Glenfield 75 at a pawn shop cheap, cleaned it up and found it has one problem. It feeds, fires and extracts well, but it does not eject. The casing remains tightly held by the extractor, and does not come out without a bit of prying.
My uneducated eye tells me that there is something missing that the casing should hit on the way back, to make it eject.
Is anyone familiar with this problem?
It's also missing a front strap. Does anyone know where can you find parts for this model?
Thanks!

ejector update
In case anyone else has a Marlin 60, Glenfield 75 or similar rifle...
Marlin has an ejector update for $43, which they like better than the original design. I got a barrel band from Numrich at e-gunparts.com.
So the 75 is new again, all polished up, with a bright bore, a new barrel band and a new ejector.
