question about older glocks

[Intel0116]

so I recently acquired a gen 2 glock 22 in pretty darn good shap. few questions, mainly because im new to the world of glocks.
first question is, should I be worried about the KB that the .40 is known for ? I read that glock addressed the issue by updating the gen 2, but I could not find a way to identify if mine is an updated model, it was built in 1995, if that helps.
second, is it normal for there to be slide wear on the area that sits right below the breach ? it kind of looks like there was small pieces of metal that were chipped off.

LOL, I couldn't help it, the KB problem while they were happening in the older glock 22's was more the round then the gun. Bullet set back up'd the already high pressure round which caused the KABOOM problems. personally after shooting thousands upon thousands of rounds of 40sw I decided the snappy recoil was just not worth it and went back to 9mm. But then again to each his own.
There is nothing wrong with the gen 2 glock 22s especially if it was made in 95 which is a few years before the gen 3's came out. But I personally prefer gen3's over gen2's or 4's. Again personal opinion. I did have a glock 17 gen 2 that gave me problems after problems, but gen2 was the generation where glock got it's famous "reliability" stamp so you should be fine.

Also it is not normal for there to be metal chips in the slide nor excessive wear below the breach, you should get that checked before putting the gun through it's paces.

I carried a Gen 2 Model 22 as a duty pistol for a decade, firing many thousands of rounds through it without any problems. If the slide wear that you're talking about is on the inside of the slide below the ejection port, that's caused by the locking block and is normal. Annual PM calls for removing any peened metal at that location using a hard whetstone.

A photo of the slide in the area of concern would be helpful.

The KB issue was due to older chambers not offering full case support?

Pull your barrel out and drop a round in the chamber. How much does the chamber support it?

... and if it worries you, OP, you can get an aftermarket barrel for like $100 to ease your worries.
