I have a Kimber TLE that has 11,000 rounds through it. The last few trips to the range, it has had a failure to eject about once very 75 - 100 rounds.
It has always happened with the last round and the last three times it has been with the same magazine. I am not sure if the same magazine was involved in earlier failues to eject.
When the failure to eject happens, the slide is in slide lock. The head of the case is trapped in the mag lips and the bottom of the case mouth (as you look at it) is angled up and crimped in as if it was forced through the rear of the mag.
I hoped the attached photo shows enough detail.
Thanks, Sam
