![]() ![]() The ejector, I haven’t found a solution for. Steyr USA was kind enough to send me several spare extractors, and I was able to work out a geometry that worked better. Part of this is down to the poor extractor tension on the 9mm casing, which can be rectified somewhat by adding a stiffer spring and removing a bit of material from the extractor to give it more bite. The 9mm version has widespread reliability issues. The Steyr (unlike the Glock) was designed to shoot. I believe they used the same ejector and extractor (the other 50%) for both the. I am convinced this is 50% of the issue with Steyr M & S series pistols in 9mm also. The forehead thing is not every time but once every so often…but it can sting and without glasses…well, you get it.” I messed around with bending the ejector just slightly and it actually worked the best on a stock 22. The problem with a 9mm trigger housing in a 40 is that on some guns it will eject straight back into your forehead. ![]() With certain magazines, ejection is weak as noted in your video. I have several Glocks that with the magazine removed the expended case will not eject and will fall out through the magazine well. The round in the magazine keeps the case from dropping down and failing to make contact with the ejector. The ejection problem is due to the case not making contact with the ejector especially if it is the last round or there is no magazine in the well. “The cases never hit or barely contact the ejector. Either with the use of a 9mm trigger pack or tweaking the ejector about 1mm towards the center axis of the bore, ejection issues went away. 40 caliber Glock issues way back in 2007. Interestingly enough, Mike Pannone (who, coincidentally, wrote a handbook about Glocks), worked on Gen 3. The modified ejector is supposed to fix some of the reliability problems that have plagued the Glock Gen 4 from its introduction – problems which Glock devotees have steadfastly refused to admit the existence of. Glock has introduced a new ejector for some of their handguns, including the Gen 4 9mm pistols. ![]()
