    It's finally working, 88.
    It took a lot of rounds and a lot of screwing around with multiple shaped ejectors, changing springs, lowering the ejection port, extractor tension... but I finally cured the FTE. Once I started shooting it more I found the empties were bouncing off the Cmore with some of them bouncing back into the chamber. It was getting frustrating. I still get one or two out of a mag glancing off the bottom of the sight, but in such a way they find their way to the ground now.
    It's pretty accurate and the recoil is light.

    That's good to hear. The gun looks great and it's nice to hear it shooting great as well. Nice job on that.
