Supposedly his three kids started running the company in 2004, the same time he gave up his executive authority in the company.I wonder who is running Glock these days? Gaston married a 31-year-old this year.

Problem is that Glock markets and advertises "Glock Perfection" when clearly its not.
I'm not bashing on Glock. I'm indifferent when it comes to Glocks. Don't own one, have shot many and they are good guns, but far from perfect. I would probably own one in the future but its not the first gun I would run to when I go buy guns. Plenty of other great platforms out there IMO (1911's, revolvers, etc)

I sent it back the 24th on Glock's dime. I asked them to install a new ejector no. 30274 and shoot it. If that doesn't fix it I told them they could keep it and send me one that works.

If you are saying that "270 million American citizens" own Glocks (or any other pistol for that matter), I only wish that that were so.

If you buy every marketing slogan every corporation has ever come up with I have bridge to sell to you.
"It took 100 years for the 1911 to earn the name Desert Eagle."
"Proudly made in the US."
"Imported from Detroit."
"Continuing the Legacy."
"America's most trusted firearm."
You get my drift?

I'm surprised to see so many people with issues, I had no idea!
I've been chugging away a few thousands rounds a year for two years with no issues with the G19.
I've only once had a stovepipe, however this was federal walmart ammo that was so weak it wouldn't even lock the slide after the last round. Put in another box of federal and that fixed it, must've been a really bad batch.
If someone has a brand new G19 or glock try breaking it in with 500 rounds of nato ammo, and see if that doesn't help!
It's rare a glock doesn't work out of the box, but this usually fixes it.
p.s. my glock ejects erratically sometimes with cheaper ammo, and sometimes I catch hot brass to the eyewear. I've noticed this problem goes away with NATO ammo. I can only hope my +p gold dots don't eject into my eyes, but I don't have the cash to burn through a few hundred of those and find out.
