M1917 ejector issue.

[MattMaier]

I guess this isn't so much a problem as it is a minor annoyance. One of the things I love about my Winchester M1917 is the placement of the bolt handle in a manner that allows me to do rapid fire drills with ease. However, from time to time when I do these rapid fire drills, when I open the bolt and pull it back to eject the fourth round, the follower will push the final round up with such force that it pops it out of the magazine. Has anyone else had this happen to them with their 1917? Is there a fix, or is it really even worth it?

I don't know the 1917 very well.

But check the stock fit and see if it causes a gap between the magazine and receiver.
Are the stock screws too long and protruding through too far?
