As CraigC said. One of the things I really like about it!

Took it to the range yesterday to test it out. Had a few things to check on it. If the sights were on,...if it ran the rounds correctly, and if it ejected them. I saw a video where someone was shooting the first Shopkeeper and they had a lot of issues ejecting the spent cartridges. So I ran several cylinders through it and I had a good time with it! Ejection was absolutely no problem. They came right out. Pretty accurate as well...considering the size of the gun, the type of sights, and my middle aged eyes. It was a very good range test! :-D

I found with mine, when ejecting spent casings: As I rotate the cylinder to each chamber, where it clicks, hold the cylinder against the stop and eject.

Maybe that goes for all SA revolvers. I dunno. But if I let the cylinder freely move, the ejector rod would sometimes go into the casing, and not eject far enough.
 
kcofohio, that is what the first shopkeeper may require. The one I have will fully eject the casing even if the rod goes right into the casing. It's really an excellent little gun. Very glad I got it!
