Dremel tool with polishing bit, and polishing compound.

I like to wrap a dowel rod of apropriate diameter(5/16 or so for 9mm, 3/8 for .40 and 10mm) with different grades of sandpaper. I usually use 320 then 600 then 1500 grits.

I have a TZ 75 9mm, and a baby eagle 40 that would miss feed at 40-50 rounds and hot. Did the dremel tool and polishing compound for 5-10 minutes on the ramp and ejection port--can fire as fast and hot as possible on both and have not had a problem. Automatically did the same on my tac four before firing it----Was the best move on a semi auto I have ever made and I am nowhere near being a gunsmith. Cannot get my semis to mis feed now.

Best of luck

I use a dremel tool with a felt tip. I have some jeweler's rouge that I use for polish. Makes it all shiny and slick.
