    I had this problem but with almost every round i had to mod the extractor round off the sharp bottom because it eats into the brass and polish the feed ramp

      @@dannyb9140 feel that, I'm really sad my reflex was a lemon, seems like good ones are really good, and I loved how it fit in my hand, but I've been carrying a 19x for a few years now, so the 365 Xmacro just seemed logical. 17+1 way slimmer then the Glock and I love how it fits in my hand. Need more time tho, only at 260ish rounds
