I have a Red Label that I have not used much over the past several years. First the ejector on one side, and more recently the other, have begun to act up, sticking and not ejecting shells. Is it likely the springs simply need replacement, due to the lack of use, and being stored in a compressed state? If they do need replaced, is that a difficult job?

One guy told me that spraying them liberally with bore cleaner is very likely to fix the problem. I'll try it, but am skeptical. Ideas on the problem, and the potential solution?

Thanks.
