Hsmith, sorry - "normal" was a poor choice of words. The raised ring isn't something I've seen either. I re-checked my casings from the new PT 1911 and they are correct, just as any other pistol I've fired. No raised rings/ no ballooned primers so something is different from this pistol and the other one. I still believe the firing pin hole on my first one was larger than it should have been.
