I have the 1911-A1 full sized loaded target model in black stainless.
Springfield Armory
Very nice shooter. Better than I ever will be.

Replace the ejector, today, with one from Wilson. They are stupid expensive but, unless Springfield has changed their quality, their mim broke on me under 500 rounds.
It's a hard use part that really gets slammed in a .45

That's what it's all about with mim.
Might well last forever. As long as it's not your defense weapon, I have no comment. If it is, I strongly recommend swapping it out.

Hadn't heard of this, but looking into...I'm confused. There seems to be an older version that is thicker and possibly machined or Metal Injection Molding. The newer one seems to be stamped steel. I haven't found anything about the thicker one cracking/breaking, but did find one of the stamped ones cracked. And I haven't been able to find any parts for the XD from Wilson.
BTW, mine is the older, thick ejector.

I've had mine for several years with several thousand rounds down the tube. Used it in several defensive handgun courses with narry a problem.
Is it a certain batch that have been failing or just luck of the draw?

Speaking for myself I would not use a heavy hitting pistol for in house use, at night anyway.
For one it would go through walls and two I probably, without laser, not hit the intruder and a laser would give away position and surprise right away.

I have more confidence and am more comfortable with my Sig or Glocks. Reliablity and operational wise.

might be surprised at what a .45 won't go through. I've never tried it but would wonder if a. 45 HP would go through two pieces of drywall 4 inches apart.

A .44 will go through a refrigerator, come out the other side and keep on going.
