What kind of cartridges were you using?

happygunner · 02-13-2007, 06:46 PM

Have you inspected the Extractor and the Chamber? Can the Extractor hold an empty shell casing? any signs of damage? Is the Chamber clean?

Errrrr...you do know that this is the XD-45 forum, right?

If you're putting 9mm ammo in your .45, that may be the problem!

Cheers! M2

the chamber is cleane and the extractor looks fine and it seems to hold an empty casing fine and i am using winchester 9mm luger. i dont remember what the grain is off the top of my head. sorry about the 9mm question in the .45 area i'm still working on how to use this website anny info would help should i take it to the local gun shop?

i wasnt offended dont worry but i think i'm starting to figure out this website though i'm not good with computers (or spelling) sorry for that but i'll take it to the range again this weekend and see if it is still doing it or if it was just me that day if it is still doing it i will call springfield on monday

thanks

by the way it is pulling the casing out of the chamber but it is getting cought between the slide and the barell if that makes sence it just isnt fully getting out of the gun

Try buying some pipe cleaners and scrubbing under the extractor hook periodically. I have noticed FTE on my 9, 40, and 45. A quick scrubbing will clean it right up. I think the extractor groove needs to be deeper.
