I know, not a double but a lot of you guys are into more than doubles. I need to communicate with someone who is well versed in the feeding and cycling of the 92, specifically the ejector and its configuration.

The ejector on the face of the bolt on the 92 is spring loaded inward as the cartridge is fed into the chamber and then the bolt is closed.
About like what happens in a 700 Remington.

As the cartridge is extracted from the chamber the ejector puts that spring tension onto the rear of the cartridge and trys to tip it upward.
The cartridge stays in the chamber obviously until the extractor has pulled it all the way clear of the chamber.
Then that spring tension flips the case/cartridge upwards once
it clears the top edge of the rifles chamber.

If the ejector spring (a simple coil spring) is too heavy, it will make extraction seem hard, rough as the case is dragging it's way out of the chamber under that heavy spring tension.
Just operating the lever to open the action with a case in the chamber (loaded rd or an empty) will seem harder to do than with an empty chamber.

It does however provide spectacular ejection trajectory if that's what you want!
It's better to settle for simple ejection and smoother functioning IMO.

I know the operating principle of the ejector. my question is about the tolerances and tweaking the ejector due to cartridge length.
