Title: SIG 225 ejector
Post by: kmitch200 on September 22, 2011, 03:52:49 PM
We've been playing around with the P225 lately and it has one annoying feature...the spent case ejection.
It comes nearly straight back and that causes issues with bouncing off the top of my head, down my collar or dropping hot brass down my wifes cleavage.
It isn't a frame mounted one like 220/226, it is a small metal tab extension of the slide release.

Has anyone tried to "tune" a 225 *or 220 ejector?
Any cures or thoughts? (besides telling the wife to wear t-shirts that don't have a V neck, which I already did)
 
*Edit: The 220 has the same type of ejector, a tab on the slide release. The 226 ejector is "frame" mounted.

that happens with a lot of new pistols,usually stops after 50-100 rounds

Trouble is, this one is not new. Approx 600 rds over the years give or take.

It has been riding a safe shelf for a while since I have been playing with newer handguns, rifles and shotguns.

I don't know a lot about Sig's, but a friend I asked said that it could be due to either a weak extractor spring or a build-up of crud in a channel under the ejector (?).
