Hey folks!- I havent run into this in a long time so some new insight please. New Glock- M36 45acp,  230 gr hardball .  Less than 500 rounds through it and its starting to " stovepipe" ( dont know if they still call it that) Factory rounds from LGS- the only work done on this was a 3.5 wollf connector and a 6lb trigger spring. I lean towards the ammo- maybe a box or 2 at the end of a run, some poor measures? Its my CCW so I dont want any trouble- I dont see why the 2 add ons would do anything like this but! any ideas thank you very much

You limp wristing mofo!!



Double check with new, good ammo. My guess is your not applying enough forward pressure when shooting... Been there, done that..

Put the factory parts back in and see if the problem goes away. Did it run prior to the parts swap?

 
What for?  That's ridiculous!  Trigger springs or connectors do not - and never have - caused anybody's Glock to stovepipe (or, 'FTE').  

It's a new G-36.  If your wrist is properly locked when you fire then the most likely cause is that the slide is, ‘short stroking’.  This could be caused by the Glock being new and still, ‘stiff’; or it might be the result of using crappy, ‘range quality’ ammo.  

Make sure you’re not limp wristing.  Use sufficiently powerful ammo; and take a look to make sure your extractor claw isn’t chipped.  In my own experience every polymer frame pistol requires a good three to five hundred rounds run through it BEFORE it’s, ‘verified’ for field service.  (So, you’ve still got a way to go!)
