Quoted: As the others have said; take the slack out of the trigger and use the reset.
As for the brass hitting you in the head, I think you need to get a case through it before you worry about it. My G17 was noticably tighter than my G19 when new.
What range did you go to?

I was taking the slack out of the trigger by pulling it back to where I started to feel resistance, then I would get the sight picture and try to squeeze until it broke. I tried different holds, etc. and still had the same problem.
I'm not sure what you mean by "resetting" the trigger though, can you explain that please?
Actually, I have had the same problem with every handgun I have shot. I drifted the rear sight on my 1911 also because I was hitting in the exact same place. I don't notice it on my .357, but I primarily cock it before shooting it and don't fire it double action.
This morning I was holding the hair dryer in the bathroom, and when I held it like a pistol and squeezed on the "trigger", I noticed it canted to the left.
Oddly enough, when I hold my empty hand out like I am holding an imaginary gun and try to move my trigger finger like squeezing a trigger, I notice that my other fingers move inward also. For whatever reason I cannot isolate my trigger finger from the rest of my grip.
Even if I hold all my fingers straight out and try to curl my index finger in, the other fingers will flex in also. As I am squeezing the trigger, my other fingers must be squeezing the grip as well pulling the gun to the left just as the trigger breaks.
Well, like another guy at the range said, at least I am consistant!! I was shooting some pretty good groups, just in the wrong spot!!
I figured the brass ejection was just a matter of break in, and I'm not really concerned about it as long as it keeps functioning fine.
I primarily shoot at Cedar Hill gun range in Danville, but sometimes shoot on my uncle's farm when I want to do some serious playing. The range is an OK place to shoot, and is the only range in the area.
