I have a new Glock 30s, that I like very much. Light, accurate, nice trigger for a Glock. About 300 shots fired through it so far.
HOWEVER, shooting it with a Lone Wolf barrel and lead swc ammo, I'm getting FTEs at least once per mag.
The fired case is left partially in the chamber, of course the next rd. is jammed up underneath. I'm wondering if there have been any reports of out-of-spec extractors? Unlikely but possible, I suppose.
These are of course reloaded cartridges, well used brass, and 185 and 200 gr. swc cast lead bullets. Loaded to around 900 fps measured in 1911s. I've fired many many thousands of these without any problems in other pistols, mostly 1911 types.
Not limp wristing the pistol, and it's clean, barrel looks fine and extractor is not in contact with barrel when in battery. If anyone has experienced similar problems or has any thoughts I'd like to hear them!
Thanks,
