Should I lower and flare the port?
This is a project gun and ejects shells all over.
Its  a 1960 Sistema contract Colt slide in grade 3 condition and will be refineshed when done.

Ejection is controlled mostly by the ejector and to some degree by the extractor. Lowering and flaring the ejection port mostly just keeps the brass from gettin dinged up.

An "unfuckered" Ejection port is the firearms equivalent of a bullet bra and real nylons on your old lady: Pure, old-school class.

I am proud to have more 1911s without the L&FEP than with.

I don't know what you have in the toybox already, but re-parking yourself a full A1 clone is the only way to go.
