The chamber could be dirty or corroded which would hold the hull and prevent it from slipping out or the extractor could be broken preventing it from removing the spent hull. That being said, the Mod 37 design has been around since 1937, pretty much unchanged and is considered very reliable. It should be noted that if the gun is cocked and the shooter wants to cycle the action to empty the chamber, you do know that the slide must be nudged forward before pulling it back. Words to this effect appear in the owner's manual. A burr can be raised in the action if this advice is not followed. The action would then be sluggish and it may be the source of your extraction problems. Consult a gunsmith for corrective actions.

Can pistols eject cases when firing?

Yes, pistols can eject spent cartridge cases when firing. This process occurs as part of the semi-automatic or automatic cycling of the firearm, where the energy from the fired round operates the action to extract and eject the empty casing. The design of the pistol, including its ejection port and extractor, plays a crucial role in ensuring reliable case ejection. Proper maintenance and functioning of these components are essential for the pistol's reliable operation.

Which object would fall first on the moon a bowling ball a feather or a large empty box?

On the Moon, all objects fall at the same rate regardless of their mass due to the lack of air resistance. Therefore, a bowling ball, a feather, and a large empty box would all fall simultaneously when dropped from the same height. This phenomenon was famously demonstrated by astronaut David Scott during the Apollo 15 mission. In a vacuum, where there is no air, the feather and the bowling ball hit the surface at the same time.
