I have a Kimber Raptor II, a very accurate and well made semiauto.
I bought it second hand, so I don't actually know how much did it shoot before I got it.
The gun is very accurate, as said, but it's a damn "jam factory".
It happens almost always with the third last shot in the magazine, every two-three magazines
The case isn't ejected while the second last shot starts to feed into the ramp, jamming the gun in such a nasty way that you have to remove magazine (as the spent case has been pushed up by the next cartridge, out of the reach of the ejector) let the half chambered cartridge fall out of the well and push out the spent case.
What can be causing such a malfunction?
It isn't the load, as I tried different reloads and factory ammo without improving the situation.
I tried deliberately limp wristing the gun hoping to worsen the effect, but didn't change anything.
It isn't the recoil spring, as I changed it with a brand new one.
And it isn't the magazine, as I tried it with 4 different magazines, from different firearms, with no change.
My bet is now on the extractor and / or ejector, even if I can't see how a weak extractor could cause this. Any help would be appreciated.
