    I have a stock Gen 4 G26 with 1725 assorted,mostly cheap rounds without a hiccup.
    I have a Gen 4 17 with a Zevtech V3 race connector,competition spring kit,Lone Wolf lightweight striker and a heavy .25 trigger job.It has a measured trigger pull weight of 2.1 lbs.(range gun).The Gen 4 17 has 2450 rounds through it without any issues.I do get an occasional case to the face.I can get the new ejector for free,which would cure this but so far I haven't been knocked out or burned by a stray case.

    I was hoping you can elaborate on what you mean by "getting a new ejector for free?"
    Do you mean you can call Glock and they will send out a new one? Also, I have a new Gen4 Glock 19 and I did notice that I get hit once in a while as well although I have not had any misfires.

    Glock won't send you an ejector,but it will send an ejector to a Glock armorer of your choice for free.It should be easy enough to find an armorer though.

    I've have a gen 4 glock 19. And I have only stove piped once with about 500 rounds through the barrel.

    Glock 21 Gen 4. Sweet weapon. No problems with it. I really notice the less felt recoil off hand unsupported. I think whatever problem they have they must have worked out. I haven't seen the problem described above with anyone's pistol while running people through range exercises. I agree with Outlaw. Glock is the best pistol for the money IMO. It is rare to see a malfunction from a Glock unlike many other major pistol brands I see at work.

    Don't get it twisted. I leave complete faith in glock. Im sure people who participate in competition have more of an issue with malfunctions. However, for self defense, clearing a malfunction that rarely occurs shouldn't dictate be an issue. Experience is instrumental.

    I have and just gave to a daughter a Glock 22 gen 4, with updated spring. No problems with it. It will be her duty weapon after she graduates LEO academy this summer.

    I have two Gen4 17's and a Gen4 26. All are flawless. Also have a late model Gen3 21 which is flawless as well

    That's one too many for a Glock.What is the test fire date?
    Does it have the updated ejector,extractor or recoil spring?
    I would check to find out.Glock will upgrade it for free,free shipping too.Or you can have a Glock Armorer order them for you.
    The 19 is the most problematic of the Gen 4s.I wouldn't be satisfied with any failures from a Glock period.Especially when the fix is free.

    Worked with quite a few Gen 4 Glocks with no problems so far.
