Glock feeding problem...?

Can you describe the malfunction? Is it a failure to eject or a failure to feed?

****It sounds like you have used all of your options and your next course of action would be to send it back to Glock and have them inspect it. Did you replace the spring with a factory spring or an after market spring? And were the magazines used LE magazines or new?

This is a common problem but it's all related to shooting technique and not the Glock itself. You spent a good deal of money on your Glock and you know why you paid more for a quality firearm. Replacing it is not the answer.

I have carried Glocks for over 20 years now . I have fired over 500 rounds in one day without stopping to clean and have not had problems. However, I am able to force a malfunction for demonstration purposes if I want to by firing with a weak grip.

I won't get into all the physics,but basically you have a very heavy slide sitting on top of a very light lower receiver. The recoil wants to throw the entire gun back rather than just allowing the slide to move back. The problem will get worse as the magazine empties because the bottom of the pistol gets lighter with every shot and the slide stays the same weight.

The answer to your problem is a stronger grip. You may need to do some exercises to improve your grip, wrist, arm, and shoulder strength. Also, use 2 hands and a good stance. I am not saying you need to work out to fire a Glock, but some good upper body strength will help you be a better shot with any pistol. Just a little instruction from someone who knows how to shoot will probably solve your problem in one day.

Those who talk bad about Glocks and say you should get rid of it and go with another brand probably have a limp-wristed shooting technique and never bothered correcting it. They switched to a pistol that makes up for some of their poor technique. Bottom line is that once you learn how to hold your Glock, you will outshoot those people at the range because even though they don't have malfunctions as often as they did before, they still have poor technique.

The Glock is temperamental to the shooter. If the weapons mechanics are not bad, try wearing a wrist support. Seriously, weak wrist will cause the shell to jam during extraction. I found this out when I let my wife use my 26 at the range. After extraction, the live round fed to the ramp and jammed right at the ramp.

Try the wrist support and steady your wrist more sternly - if it continues, go to a S&W 5946.

EDIT:

EASY KILLER - we don't know you, you asked a question and obviously quite a few of use just gave the same troubleshooting ideas. No one denied you as having the capability of shooting. You asked a specific question about a specific firearm. Understand the personal/subjective views on the suggestions - I don't know you from Adam - but this is a COMMON problem of Glocks with weak-wristed technique shooters.

Most of the weight in the Glock is on top of the frame. You must hold it very firm when shooting (this also is a basic of marksmanship) When you come on target focus on forcing your arms out and getting a nice firm stance. This puts the recoil in your shoulders, not your wrists. It improves accuracy and keeps the weapon in a good position for feeding. I had this problem when I first started shooting, focused on grip, hasn't been a problem again in over ten years and I don't know how many rounds.

I accept as true with the others. Muzzle climb on Glocks are greater abrupt while in comparison with maximum different handguns of a similar high quality and limp wristing will reason feeding issues. attempt rotate your palm inward (in the direction of your different hand) approximately 25-30 levels and lock your joints once you hearth your Glock. If the placement greater as we communicate, then you definately're limp wristing.

I agree with 'NYPD.Hwy. Retired' except I'd go with the Beretta 92FS/ US M-9.

Feeding problems?

I found that a Playtex nurser is a reliable answer.

this has always been a problem with this make. i switched to a smith and wesson 9mm and have not had one jam
