This problem happens on repros and meriden guns. Seems to be most common on the very small frame sizes where the dolls head is not very tall.
The best solution is to notch the kicker shafts and put a set screw in the bottom of the lug (like the extractor guns have). This allows the kickers to stop before striking the stop plate. The plate can be left in. This is the process that ithers have mentioned above.
