Well after 6000+ rounds, my Glock 23 had it's first malfunction. The problem was 2 FTF. The round chambered about half way and then the slide hung up. I was using factory reloads from Miwall. I have shot thousands of these rounds through this gun and this is the first malfunction. The gun hadn't been cleaned for probably 200 or so rounds so I don't think it was too dirty. I sure hope it was the ammo!

Could be the springs. -
Sorry, you are mistaken. Glocks don't malfunction. I read it on the internet.

1911 mfg recommendation was change springs every 5000 rounds...I would recommend doing the same with my Glock. A spring kit will not cost as much as the peace of mind in a working firearm. Lastly, after any armorer work, make sure you run the firearm so that you know it is 100% reliable."Bruen, the Bruen opinion, I believe, discarded the intermediate scrutiny test that I also thought was not very useful; and has, instead, replaced it with a text history and tradition test."

I heard that every time you say a Glock malfunctioned, God kills a kitten.

Could be the Miwall reloads. My old USP 40F choked on their .40 reloads all the time.sigpicComment

Wow, glad it was only a nightmare. It WAS only a bad dream, right?

Disassemble your Glock, do a chamber check for your reloads using your disassembled Glock barrel. Did the offending round go in and out of the chamber easily? If it didn't, your reloaded rounds are the culprit!
I do this on all my reloaded rounds. gives me peace of mind that my reloads are not "too fat or too long" for my particular pistol.Comment
