Glock 19 failure to eject.

[ghsdca]

Built a custom G19 and had no issues, just not a polymer guy so I sold it. They should run 100% from the factory.

they are 2183s

I bought my G19 in April, and I had 5-6 malfunctions per mag. Did not matter what ammo I used. I first installed the #3 followers and it shot FMJ w/o issues, but it would not feed HP's at all. I bought some #6 followers and did some minor fitting and it resolved all issues. People told me it was probably the recoil spring, but I went with a know source of issues, and it fixed it, 100% reliable now. Email glock and ask for #6 followers to see if they will mail them out. they mailed out #3's to me, but i just asked for new followers. I have a thread I started showing the side of the mag lip to file down. http://www.calguns.net/calgunforum/s....php?t=1198788

Glock is perfection! It can't be the gun! It must be you!

Before I replace anything I have to take it to the range again and put more rounds. If it continues I will look into the mags.

If you were closer I would let you try mine, good luck hope you resolve your issues.

Did you break it down and clean it and inspect it before firing?
It could have some gunk blocking the slide or other issue.

I have over 3,000 rounds through my G26 with never the slightest hiccup or malfunction.
I cleaned it before firing and always clean it after firing.

Sounds like a solid plan. Did you swap out the recoil springs?

Agreed. OP, you are still 300 rounds within your break in period. Put another few hundred rounds through her and see what happens.

I Own a few Glocks and only ocassionally have FTE with aluminum case ammo(blazer). No problems with brass or steel.

Finally someone recognized what I wrote. Have been a Glock armorer (civi/LE) since 2000, but what do I know?

My G19 had issues it was the 2183 followers, they work for some G19's, I had major malfunctions with mine. The #6 followers fixed all issues, requires some minor fitting.

I experienced this as well
