The extended ejectors take advantage of the bigger ejection ports on modernish 1911’s. Jmb’s idea of ejection was up and over your head like you sayCool. I'm that way too. Mr Ed just posted a picture of a short ejector. Some custom 1911s have short ejectors lime this as they are tuned to send the empties where the owner wants them. In this short ejector case tube empties would leave the slide later than normal. And would be thrown more back than to the side. Does this make sense?
