Hey guys, just finished cleaning my new sig after shooting it for the first time and noticed the ejector rod, part #32, is loose and has some play in it. None of my other pistols feel like this, is this normal? Thanks guys.
 
As long as your sear and safety lever are still there.... Lol.

How much play we talkin'?

ETA: and in which direction?
 
Just a tad it moves up and side to side. I can't recall if it was rigid when I first got the pistol though. I had no problems with extractions but like I said all of the ones on my other pistols are rigid.
 
Yeah, a little bit's alright. That part is held in by one funny little fixed pin & the same pivot as the sear and safety lever. A little side-to-side is fine (or else the sear/safety couldn't move), but if there's a lot up & down, I might look a little closer. Have NO idea how that would get worn, though, 'cuz it ain't moving.
 
No it's not a lot by any means, it just wiggles and I'm quite anal about my new firearm that I paid over a grand for. :p. Not to mention that it was brand new and I had to get a replacement barrel due to the fact it was shipped new and passed QC with a deformed feed ramp.
 
No worries, a little wiggle is necessary (sp?). That bit rides in a groove in the slide to position it anyways, IIRC.
 
Yes it does. I would just hate for a problem to arise out of it. I know I'm probably just fussing over nothing but I'm kind of leery about the quality of my 226 after having the barrel deformity. Hope I didn't get a Monday gun.
 
Naw, if it makes you feel better, if it's a Monday gun, they probably started building it on Friday afternoon so....

Never mind.




Lol, couldn't resist. Don't suppose you took any pictures of that wonky barrel, did you? I, for one, would be interested to see it.
 
I do have a picture of it, but it's on my iPhone at the moment. I actually had to upload it to facebook, then redirect it to email it from my phone to Wolverine to get it straightened out.
 
Oooooh we can be Facebook friendz!!!
