mioduz Posted January 22, 2013 Share Posted January 22, 2013 Im having an issue that is happening more and more often. History: i got this pistol 2 years ago and for over a year it ran flawlessly with 38 super and super comp brass intermixed. The malfunctions started maybe once per match and increased in repetitiveness. I think im to the point that i can not make it through two big sticks without a failure. Now as to the issue. Brass is not leaving the ejection port completely. When there isnt a failure brass ejects and travels what i would say is an acceptable distance (5-10 ft) The second picture where the brass is vertical was the last shot in mag for what that is worth.

Anyone have luck running one with both types of brass Sent from my DROID RAZR using Tapatalk 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted January 22, 2013 Share Posted January 22, 2013 After changing to a C-more Serendipity I was getting occasional jams like the one in the first picture. The cases were ejecting low, hitting the bottom of the port, then bouncing up and rebounding off the bottom of the C-more back into the port and jamming. My port wasn't especially large so a shooting buddy lowered the port a little more for me, and then little by little I changed the ejector so it would kick the cases out of the port higher. Ref: http://www.brazoscustom.com/magart/ejection%20perfection.htm This is bad ju-ju to say aloud, but after tinkering with this a little I haven't had a jam like this in a few thousand rounds now.

Action Pistolero Posted January 22, 2013 Share Posted January 22, 2013 Check the extractor tension first. Do this by taking the slide off and slide a round under the extractor. The round should stay there. Install the barrel in the slide with the round in there. Push the barrell up into lock and then come down and pull the barrel out of the slide. The round should stay put. If it falls out, you need more tension. Also, be sure that the extractor tunnel is clean. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

392heminut Posted January 23, 2013 Share Posted January 23, 2013 If it was ejecting in the past with no problems then your ejector is just fine unless it got damaged somehow. Your extractor tension has changed for some reason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glock26Toter Posted January 23, 2013 Share Posted January 23, 2013 Same here man. I saw some "out of the blue" ejection issues for a couple matches that looked just like that. New springs in my AFLAC and they went away. Along with my insurance problems. HA! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
R. Batt Posted February 1, 2013 Share Posted February 1, 2013 I had a similar problem in a 9 major open gun I used to have. After checking the extractor and ejector, it ended up being a weak recoil spring. I'd recommend replacing the recoil spring if the extractor isn't the problem.
