Yes this is common!..especially with the aluminium ejector rod housings....the hole in the housing will get elongated so NO amount of screw tightening will solve the problem.

Yes you may have a shallow hole or crud in there or even a bent housing screw....but odds are that your ERH hole is getting enlarged from use and the occasional release of the ejector slamming full force forward into the housing during ejection of the cases.


Mister, why do you carry a 45? "Because Sam Colt don't make a 46."
