Anyhow, it ejects shells at extremely high velocity at a distance of almost 4 lanes. Talk about some pi$$ed off shooters. Every one was griping about it. Fortunately, most were my friend.
A cocksqueezer? I mean squeezecocker? . My Sigs tend to throw brass a country mile too. If they are at the range and get hit with brass, oh well.

Hmm...maybe I ordered the wrong # spring. I know for sure I'm not limp wristing. I'll also try a different brand of ammo.

Thanks!

This is really good to know. Time to start experimenting...gonna need a DGR....

I am having this problem, too, more with the 9mm than the .45.

I know for a fact that I limp-wrist, especially as the round count goes higher. I blame this on the fact that .44 magnum is my favorite caliber and have over the years developed a "roll with it" technique. I only say this so you won't confuse limp-wrist with any masculine deficiencies on my part . This is one thing I really like about the XD - you can limp-wrist the heck out of it and it keeps functioning. Can't say that about my 1911.

For my daughter it's even worse. Since she shoots right handed and left eye dominant most of the brass that would fly by my right ear hits her in the head!

It was worth a try.
