can't see the pictures but going to say the case mouth is hitting the deflector after being ejected form the upper. completely normal.

Am I right :?: 8)

Stick a piece of Velcro(fuzzy side) on the deflector if it bothers you. I have replaced mine a few times, but it does lessen the problem.

Yep. Looks like mine.
We all have that. Unless you want to run a slick side without a deflector.

the brass still gets even more dinged with a slickside, I had to make a delrin brass deflector to stop the cases from digging into the side of the receiver, the brass actually contacts the receiver with the case mouth digging aluminum out with each shot.
