Not to sound like a broken record here, but I still suspect it's just limp-wristing and a case of not giving the gun a rigid enough platform to work correctly (even during slamming the mag home). Glock feed ramps are ridiculously un-finicky, mine will feed empty brass for christ's sake ) The brand of ammo is relevant, but myself and many others have shot thousands upon thousands of those types through Glocks without any issues, so unless you eject a particular round that you have trouble with, you'll never confirm if it's the round (and I say "round" not "the ammo" because Glocks are known to function just fine with ANY factory ammo available on this planet).Ī) Who's your buddy? (I mean is he an experienced shooter, and more relevant, is he an experienced Glock shooter?)Īnd FTF "slamming a mag into the well" means exactly what? (This just seems suspect since even a Glock with a totally worn out recoil spring or worn out mag spring will feed a round off the top of the mag about 100% of the time. Need a bit more info to really help you here. ? Calling Glock back today to try and suss this out. I shot 3 or 4 full mags at med-high cadence and got no jams. He seemed to think there was something goofy with the gun causing the FTFs. It never jammed with me - no FTFs with me, but my buddy had one FTF during slow firing, and 3 FTF when slamming a mag into the well. 50 of them were speer lawman (the rest were WallyWorld Federal). So I went to the range yesterday with a buddy and we shot about 175 rounds through the gun. This also helps to prevent limp wristing, which will eliminate a vast majority of your problems. This grip will negate most of the motion caused by the recoil and will bring the nose of the gun back down faster allowing quicker, more accurate follow up shots. Then pull back on the gun with your off hand, which has it's fingers wrapped around the front of the dominate hand fingers, thumb parallel to and tucked slightly beneath dominate thumb. Basically, push forward on the gun with your dominant hand, which is positioned as high as possible on the back strap (the top, flat portion of the back strap, that is parallel to the slide, is where the webbing between your thumb and index finger should be tightly positioned), with the trigger finger and thumb on opposite sides, parallel to the slide. How I learned to hold a firearm has helped me extensively. The right style of grip for you will also help, use what you know and what you are comfortable with. It means to have a good firm grip, a stiff wrist, and a strong forearm. Correcting a limp wrist doesn't mean just squeeze the hell out of the gun. With Blow-Backs, diagnosing, being honest with yourself, and knowing how to correct a limp wrist will go along way.
