my Nova does the same thing but it doesn't seem to hinder the cycling of shells, I've thought the same thing though. A trick for you to try to get the carrier down without trying to grab it and pull it down with your finger. What you do is load your gun( one in chamber) and fill your mag. then hit the mag rel button and just pull the forearm down about an inch not enough to eject the shell and not enough drop in a shell from the mag, then push the bolt closed and look your carrier will be down and ready to cycle if it being up bothers you but like i said mine does it and doesn't slow the feeding any.

from the picture above, your shells are hitting the top edge. Mine is the same way but on the bottom edge of ejection port. makes me wonder if you can adjust it somehow to make 'em fly right out of the middle and not hit at all.

I was about to ask this same question. Thanks for doing so. Yes my new m2 does the same thing and i am just starting to notice it after about 200 rounds. I was worried that my shells were kicking out a little low and hitting the ejection port lip but from the other replies it looks most of them do this.
