You are just missing the slug rejector, which is not as difficult to find as the whole mech. I think I have a dime rejector.

It was so long ago that I messed with mine! The problem with the 23 is every machine has differences it seems like. Some people have said the whole system slides out the back - mine was not like that! Post some detailed pics and others will likely chime in. |
