Glocks don't eject reliably without the magazine in place, you'll likely even see failures to eject and failures to extract. The spacing between the extractor and breech face is pretty loose to allow for increased reliability and lower manufacturing costs, so the casing usually drags across the...

Plating isn't supposed to peel, it's supposed to evenly wear. The plating has peeled off of those parts after just a few hundred rounds in some cases, suggesting that the plating process wasn't done correctly because that shouldn't be enough time to wear down to the copper undercoat to allow it...

If it's not fixed, call them back and tell them and ask for a prepaid shipping label to send it back again. Include a note with the gun requesting that they install the 30274 ejector, it seems they won't do it anymore unless you specifically ask for it.

I'd get the Gen4. Besides the extra magazine, it has the new ejector which will fix the ejection problem if the gun has it. A small percentage of recent production Gen3 and Gen4 9/40/357 have erratic ejection that can be bad enough to result in failures to eject. With some, the cause is as...

I wouldn't doubt seeing a few erratic ejections with Tula. The ejection problem is more common in recent production Gen3 and Gen4 9/40/357 pistols. One possible cause is that the extractor may be out-of-spec, Glock's newest extractors are supposedly MIM, their specs can vary quite a bit and...

I had the problem with a Gen3 G27. I fixed it with the new .40 ejector. If you call Glock, speak to the Warranty Service Department and explain the problem, and say you want the new ejector, they'll likely tell you to find a local Glock Certified Armorer to order and install the part for you...

Supposedly Lipsey's is going to get another shipment of Dark Earth Glocks in September. Just wait for the caliber you want.

You can use a factory G32 barrel. Quite literally the only differences between .40 and .357 models are the bores of the barrels, the magazine tubes, and the magazine followers. However early .40 frames didn't have the metal from the front frame rail insert extended forward to stop frame...

I can't quite see it, it could be that someone scratched the slide when they detail stripped the slide. To detail strip the slide you put a punch between the firing pin lug and the black plastic sleeve underneath it, someone might've slipped when they were trying to do that. I've even seen some...

No, this is making us look bad: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IGVk5yYu3Kg I had the same problem in my Gen3 G27, the new 28926 ejector and one of the old investment cast extractors fixed it. The old extractor alone would not fix it, Glock machined the slide wrong, the cut-out in the slide...

Congrats. You'll love it even more when you find out how easy it is to detail strip, and how available every single factory part is.

If you buy a new Gen4, make sure it has this ejector. .357SIG models will use the same ejector as .40. If you still experience erratic ejection with the new ejector, that means the extractor needs to be replaced.

The LWD extractor is worth a try, but everyone who's tried it in a gun that had erratic ejection has seen the ejection become worse with the LWD 9mm extractor. People were having success with the LWD extractors when they were first released because LoneWolf had their extractors mixed up. They...

Gen4's don't have the problem. If you experience the problem in a Gen3, take note of which magazines you're using. If your magazines have the cut-out in the front for an ambidextrous magazine release, that's the cause. Those newest magazines feed slower than older designs, and on top of that...

There's nothing wrong with the 336 ejectors. The newest ejectors, stamped 30274 for 9mm and 28926 for .40, have a rearward angle to their face which helps raise the case mouth more during ejection. The new ejectors were made to change ejection enough to compensate for another problem, that the...
