lower and flare ejection port

I recently picked up a GI champion. This has the standard, not lowered, ejection port. So far it has not bothered me.

Is there any *performance* reason to lower and flare the ejection port? If there isn't I will probably leave the ejection port as-is.

I agree with DirtyRod.

My GI has never had an issue with the standard ejection port. Once in a blue moon brass will eject straight back, or get dinged somewhat badly. I provide my professional reloader (if you see this, thanks dad) with brass and he hasn't had any complaints about the dings. He shoots an old colt with a standard ejection port as well.

So I say if your brass aint broke don't lower it.
