TONY BARONE Posted May 2, 2018 Share Posted May 2, 2018 Most set up the extractor the Don B way as that is the correct way to do it. Perfect ejection ,cases not touching the bottom of mount ,can be very elusive. I have three open guns that have 50,000 rounds ea thru them and brass has never touched the mount. Ejector shape, extractor tuning and deflection is a challenge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Broncman Posted May 26, 2018 Author Share Posted May 26, 2018 Two matches now and one stove pipe and one mag issue. Better but not 100%. So I have a brand new MBX 170 and a tuned Brazos ejector. MBX loaded to 29rds has zero gaps between bullets and the Brazos extended ejector looks really good . Had an Ed Brown ejector that was supposed to be extended but is actually pretty short. Going to range today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
corny Posted May 30, 2018 Share Posted May 30, 2018 Post your results on the Brazos ejector. I am looking at one myself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Broncman Posted May 30, 2018 Author Share Posted May 30, 2018 Have 5 full mags ran through it so far no issues. A match will be the true test. That will be Saturday if weather holds. I really like the ejector so far. It is long! I seat my 9 Major loads long and a 38 Super might not clear an unfired round. The bevel cut on the inside clears the magazine and the next round. Should have done it sooner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Broncman Posted June 3, 2018 Author Share Posted June 3, 2018 Gun ran perfect for the whole match yesterday! So nice to not have any equipment issues. Placed very well, third in open, 8th overall out of 75 shooters. No ejection issues, no mag issues and the great thing was with 9 Major I could leave the brass on the ground! Too damn hot to crawl around looking for brass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian04rs Posted September 23, 2018 Share Posted September 23, 2018 Did you have to reshape the brazo’s ejector or was it good to go out of the box? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Broncman Posted September 25, 2018 Author Share Posted September 25, 2018 No reshaping at all and probably 1500-2000 Rds since with no issues gunwise.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian04rs Posted September 26, 2018 Share Posted September 26, 2018 Great to hear! Have one on the way What o’clock is it ejecting as shipped? Are you running a big optic or mini? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Broncman Posted September 26, 2018 Author Share Posted September 26, 2018 Ejects about 2:00. I have a Cmore mounted on an offset mount similar to the Cheely. I hate the ones that rotate the sight. No marks on the mount from the brass. Mount is moved over to the left 200 thousandths. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a well tuned Aftec and I get stovepipes sometimes. There are two things I can do to cause stovepipe jams. One is I tend to ride the thumb safety and sometimes my thumb touches the slide. Instant stovepipe. Other times my grip is weakened, as in shooting around an obstacle. The 'limp wrist' slows down the slide and I get a stovepipe. My Open gun wears a frame mounted Slideride. So the ejector is configured to throw the brass out and down to clear the sight mount. Even with a lowered ejection port there is not much margin for error. Anything that slows the slide down causes a stovepipe. I know this is old, but thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
