GNB: Looking in to the Glock ejection problem

For last 1 year or so, there has been reports of Glock 9mm handguns having ejection problems. This started with Gen4 Glock 19 and started to appear in Gen3 Glocks. While not all Glocks were exhibiting such problem, there has been enough to the point where after market parts makers are trying to solve problems.


What is the problem?
The problem is that the ejected casing will fly straight back to the shooter's forehead or to top of head instead of to the side. This could result in casing falling in to back of the shirt or hitting the shooter in the face.

Here's a video from TWANGnBANG who got hit with the problem when he started making video to disprove the problem.
