Wasnt that part of the test before the army put in the order?
Hey what is the ejector? Oh same same extractor got it
That is categorically impossible since the ejector is pinned to the frame and cannot "get closer" to a live round than where it is at the time that the round is stripped from the magazine. In other words, a live round is ALWAYS moving away from the ejector!
If he meant the "extractor" hit the primer as the slide was moving into battery, it seems to me that the deformity would have to be so great that previous spent shells would not have been extracted, thus indicating to most that there was a major malfunction issue with the weapon and to stop using it.

Here is an animation showing the stripped round coming up under the ejector and moving forward. Only the spent shell gets near the ejector later.

Nice catchActually, if the firing pin was stuck in its hole and protruding, it could fire out of battery.
Nice catch
Mine would do that after about. 300 rds. Then it would hang
Maybe he needs to check for burrs in the channel or for straightness of the pin?With nothing out of specs?
