I have a Colt ar15 flat top H-BAR National Match rifle manufactured during Clintonista's assualt rifle ban, therefore sans flash hider/barrel threading.  It functions well, and ejects positively, but the ejected cases do not hit the case deflector, and go out to my right and slightly behind me.  Any ideas?     JB

That does not sound like a problem.

Not a problem,

The deflector is there for south paw shooters, hence so the spent brass does not hit the in the face.

If the ejection path is not hitting the deflector, then it will not hit you when you are shooting the rifle south paw as well.

thanks.  I'll just warn the guy to my right on the line that he might have some incoming brass.

Ejection pattern can be tuned by many things like changing the timing cycle, stiffer extractor pressure, and stiffening or softening the ejector spring.  If the rifle runs fine then I would suggest leaving it alone, otherwise you can mess with adjusting it if you wish the brass to eject in a specific pattern.
