Velcro will soften the blow, but to fix it properly requires potty training. By this I mean fine tuning the ejector spring length. Some will cry fowl right away, and say that reducing the spring tension is just asking for reliability issues. I can tell you that I have one upper with over 14,000 rounds and no failures to eject with this adjustment. And I can also confirm the reliability fears are justified if the ejector spring is not trimmed correctly.
The adjustment is done by grinding the spring length so that the ejector is flush with the bolt face when the spring is uncompressed. Here is a link providing further information on this adjustment. http://www.gswagner.com/arejector/arejector.html
If you are handy, this is the route to go, if not, then stick with the velcro.
