I bought one in '01, and haven't shot it in quite some time. I remember it ejected empties into the next county, so I put in a buffer for sure, and maybe a different recoil spring(s).

Sounds like yer loads may have been a tad on the warm side 3'.

I wish I’d bought one of those when I first got the itch. 

 

Same here. Some time back, there was one for sale in the SASS Classifieds, almost bought that one.

It was an inherent problem with the .45 version. The 9mm and .45 both used the same 11# spring, and it was just too light for the .45. I checked my database and found a note that I replaced it with a 21# Wolff and a new buffer from a place called Blackjack Buffers.
