    Glock 19 trigger pin loose?

    Picked up my glock 19 a few days ago, brand new gun. While shooting it today I noticed the trigger pin working its way out to the left (magazine release side). I took my knife and pushed it back in place, fired another 50 rounds through it and it was fine, didn't move. Got it home and tapped on it from each side, didn't move. Is there a chance it just wasnt set from the factory and when I pushed it in with my knife it set it? Anyone else have this happen before? I'm new to glocks so this seems weird.

      My G23 just did this recently not sure why. I did see another thread here a while back before this happend to me, you might want to search it. I pushed the pin back in and did not have the problem since. I did however just order up a stainless steel kit from glock I think it was $20

        Ill have to check the kit out. But yeah I pushed it back and it seems like it's set in place now. As for the search I havnt had much luck.

          Mine never did something like that but I've noticed that when I do a full strip I came out more easily than I would like. Maybe I'm just OCD however.

            Call Glock and see what they say. I would have no problem with sending it in for repair.
            California's politicians and unionized government employees are a crime gang that makes the Mexican drug cartels look like a Girl Scout Troop in comparison.

              Had it happen on one or two glocks. Not a problem.

                The trigger pin has ridges that are supposed to catch the slide stop, and prevent the pin from drifting. It's entirely possible that the pin wasn't inserted all the way, preventing it from being caught.

                  Yes. No. Don't be OCD about this. Just go out and shoot with it. Its fine.

                    That's what I think it was, I pulled it apart and checked it out, seems like everything is in place now. I just wasnt sure what was up with it.
