Reekus Posted September 25, 2016 Share Posted September 25, 2016 I'm having the same problem with a gen 3 17 with an rmr. Seems to happen erratically though, 5-8 rounds a magazineSent from my SM-G930T using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FTDMFR Posted September 25, 2016 Share Posted September 25, 2016 Recoil spring weight...My M&P started ejecting brass straight up and back when my recoil spring was shot. It definitely would have smacked my red dot if there had been one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AHI Posted September 25, 2016 Author Share Posted September 25, 2016 spring has less than 2k rounds on it . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
9x45 Posted September 25, 2016 Share Posted September 25, 2016 (edited) Well my kid had the exact same issue, but with a Docter dot, on a G17 and also with his other G17 that has a Dueck mount and DeltaPro. Both are relatively new Gen 3 guns, with OEM springs, although I never had this issue with my older 2 pin G17's running Trijicon Red Dots. The fix was to put in an Apex extractor. You can see how far to the right the new extractor throws it. He is also showing that with the Apex the brass goes up and out, not down the chute, as with an OEM Glock when the magazine is out. 2nd video is him running my old 2 pin G17. older 2 pin G17 Edited September 25, 2016 by 9x45 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AHI Posted September 26, 2016 Author Share Posted September 26, 2016 Will give the Apex a try. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
9x45 Posted September 26, 2016 Share Posted September 26, 2016 Forgot, in addition to the Apex extractor, he put in a Gen 4 ejector, flat point and twisted. That may have worked by itself, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AHI Posted September 26, 2016 Author Share Posted September 26, 2016 that's the ejector I installed Helped but did not fix problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rstandley Posted November 23, 2016 Share Posted November 23, 2016 I had to lower the ejection port about 1/8 inch, brass runs out at 3:00 now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How does lowering the ejection port help with it? I thought that only helped when the red dot was mounted on the frame. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jcc7x7 Posted November 29, 2016 Share Posted November 29, 2016 1911/2011 ejector tuning works on Glocks also. File the ejector so 2/3rds of the way up (towards the Top) is the only place that hits the brass. That will make it eject toward 2-2:30 and avoid hitting your slide if it is, which if it is should have some brass signature on it. Just a thought Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rstandley Posted November 30, 2016 Share Posted November 30, 2016 The ejected brass would hit the top of the cutout and caused it to tumble out. It would got over my head or hit me in the forehead. Lowering the cutout help to direct it away. Tuning the ejector as jcc7x7 described will also help. I put a radius on the lower side of my ejector. The ejector port should have a brass mark showing where the ejected brass is hitting. Having someone do a HD video will help show the path the brass is taking. Most cell phones can do this, go pro.

9146gt Posted December 12, 2016 Share Posted December 12, 2016 All the 40 rounds I have fired thru my new Glock 40 all hit the Fast Fire 3 dead center. Lookslike this is a feature not a fault of all the Glock MOS guns. Tom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hdultra Posted December 13, 2016 Share Posted December 13, 2016 Probably don't want to hear this, but if you increase the powder charge a little more you will definitely eject further. It's all a give and take. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

9146gt Posted December 13, 2016 Share Posted December 13, 2016 140 to 210 power factor all brass hits the FF3....Now on its way back to Glock. Tom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
parashooter38 Posted February 23, 2017 Share Posted February 23, 2017 I used a longer ejector and put a 30 degree back cut on it. It makes the case come out downward instead of up into the scope If you have a fax number ill send you a little drawing of what I did Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AHI Posted April 18, 2017 Author Share Posted April 18, 2017 Watched the video many times . The fix is the rear sight in front of the dot sight. Say what you will this is the only way . Have a 35mos that has been back to Glock and its going back again with same issue. I am not alone with this issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
