Used Glock issue (brass dented)

[Metal Magic]

Hey guys

Bought a used 23 for a great deal here in the market place. Took it out today for the first time and noticed some unusual amounts of brass shavings then later inspecting my brass see that every case has a flat spot like the brass might be getting hung up. I did replace the extractor with a glock OE version from midway due to the old one being worn. If I had to guess I think the gun has 1000 rounds through it? Here's some pics .... Any advice?

Wait...I though Glocks were perfect and never had any problems?

[bluranger]

Did you have any stove pipes, failure to feed??

I owned two .40 glocks not that long ago, a 27 and a 22. I had this issue on both modelds. I think its common. And unless your going to reload i wouldent worry.

Replace the recoil spring and the mag spring.

No stove pipes no FTF or FTE in fact gun ran perfect all day with 100 rounds of various factory load ammo

Oh and in doing a little research I think replacing the recoil spring is a good idea. Thanks J-Cat !

Trade it in and get a sig

well, doing a little research I think replacing the recoil spring is a good idea.

Not a member. A program..^^^^

I mean on other sites, there confirmed what J-Cat recommended.

I have disagreed with J-cat a few times over the years, turns out every single time, he was right.

I never had an issue like this on my Gen3 G22 or my Gen3 G23s.

Very odd.

Yes, odd. Never saw that on my G22, G23, G27 either. Watching to see if the cause is found.

Interesting, I'm in with the new recoil spring crowd. My G36 doesn't do that.
