I'm wondering if anyone has any links to 1911 gunsmithing sites which would show me how to file an ejector to throw cases more to the right side rather than backwards. During my very first shooting session with my brand new Compact CDP, it landed a hot case between my right eyebrow and my shooting glasses (where it stuck--ouch!), and another one landed and balanced right on top of my right shoulder. It's only a matter of time before that beast shoots one down the back of my shirt.
I had this problem with an old Star PD that a gunsmith fixed for me. I don't think I need to send the pistol out for work, IF I work carefully with a file and work very slowly. I should be able to do this myself if I have good instruction. Any websites out there -- or any gunsmiths out there who can tell me how to do this?
Thanks.
