I suggest you Google "Glock bulge" and see for yourself.
They're more supported but still not fully supported. Plenty of examples of this on the Web.
Edit: See?
This is a fully supported chamber (USP Compact).

Face palm? Calibrate your sarcasm meter. Dented case mouths are no big deal.
Certainly not either a glockpocalypse or reason to sell an otherwise perfect handgun.

No, I shall not.

So I guess the 50K or so rounds I have loaded for my stock Glock barrels without a single hitch is just a fluke?
The fact that Glock straight walled caliber chambers are more generous in no way makes it more "dangerous" to reload for, period. If you load within published powder or bullet manufacturer published guidelines, there is NO additional issue, period.
There are literally hundreds of thousands of reloaded rounds shot through Glocks monthly around the country. Kabooms happen when the reloader double charges the case with powder. This kabooms every single pistol, regardless of brand.When asked what qualities he most valued in his generals, Napoleon said, "give me lucky ones."Comment

You must not have a .40. And I never said shooting reloads is dangerous, reloading Glock bulged cases is. The wall gets weakened and can give.Oppressors can tyrannize only when they achieve a standing army, an enslaved press, and a disarmed populace. -- James Madison

I am probably missing some sarcasm here, but for those that don't reload, so don't know any better, dented cases (anywhere on the case) makes no difference whatsoever to reloading. The dies you pass the brass through straighten it out.
There are instances where a case will slam the slide mid body of the case and put a crease that sizing, flaring and crimp dies won't remove, these creases get straightened out by the pressure in the case on the next firing.When asked what qualities he most valued in his generals, Napoleon said, "give me lucky ones."Comment

I was just at LAX firing range yesterday and the vast majority of shooter were shooting Glock pistols. Since the range does not allow steel cased or aluminum cased ammo, I would guess that a large portion of the brass they get for their reloading business comes from their range... I am sure if "Glock Bulged" cases somehow inhibited their reloading business they would prohibit Glocks on the range as well.
OP, I hope the new recoil spring solves your problem.Credo Quia Absurdum!Comment

The so called Glock Bulge is very easily addressed for the shooter that wants to use Glock shot brass in a tighter chamber. It is called a Redding G-Rx die.
I like to shoot my hot 40S&W and 10mm rounds through both my stock Glocks and my 1911's, some of which have very tight chambers. I pass every single 40 and 10mm case through a Redding G-Rx after cleaning but before size and de-prime. This ensures any case I reload will chamber in any gun I own.
