Thanks again for all the comments.
Doug - I ran it wet as well ( ballistol ) and had the same issues. When the ejector tab was broken, the slide action was snappy and crisp, with all the "stop points" you would expect.
Jerry - The jams this time were all of the type in the picture, where the previous casing was properly ejected, but the next round was not loaded. It seemed to me that the slide was binding, but couldn't tell exactly where.
Don - Your analysis makes sense. I will have a look at the ejector fit.
David - Yes, I also have some concern about the magazine fit - it seems to me that there is more play than there should be once the magazine is inserted.
Once again, what a great community ! A post in the evening and a set of great ideas in the morning !
I'll report back once I try out these ideas.
Best regards,
Chuck
