I notice that shell casing were out of the chamber a little,is that why you had to port the barrle of the double tap pistol?

I don't think the ports have anything to do with the visible case protrusion from the chambers. I suspect that the case rims/extractor grooves are exposed, because there is no purchase on the cases for the extractor to engage the cartridge cases. While we see many break action firearms with a system of extractors that can engage a so-called rimless cartridge, in the case of this pistol, the designers likely chose to avoid the complexities of such as system on a small pistol. The barrels are ported in order to tame what might be some ferocious muzzle flip caused by the .45 ACP firing in such a lightweight pistol.
