1911 and ar brass ejection marks?

**jeremy155rr** · 09-15-2009, 05:20 PM

anyone have any way to remove the brass marks from an ejected round on an 1911 and ar??? I've not shot my 1911 very much and its beat the crap out of right behind the chamber opening on the slide, i'm sure its a common place for dings but isn't there a way to make them less visible?

Good old Hoppe's # 9 has worked for me. Won't come right off but just put a little on the problem, wait a few minutes, wipe and repeat.

Are you asking about your AR also? If so ... you are probably referring to marks on the brass deflector (little hump behind the port). We put a square piece of stick-on velcro (the fuzzy part) on the deflector face. It stops the marking from the brass, and the brass doesn't fly quite as far away also.

as per your 1911, if your extractor is properly setup and it has proper tension this should eliminate your problem/

+1 right on. You have an extractor/ejector issue. Could be one or the other or both. I would find a good 1911 guy and have him adjust it for you.
