Maybe you work a Glock about as well as you work a Shift key.

So you are mad that Glock won't fix your bad purchase for free?

Honestly pay the money send it to them and see what the issue is.

You made it but seriously, op should have. He obviously doesn't know he has a ticking time bomb
on his hands just waiting to blow up op, feel free to pm me for my address so I can properly dispose
of it for you.

Just barely.

Stock Glock barrel?



I don't see how any slide coating could cause FTF, unless it's too thick in the barrel lock up area and that should be easy enough to remedy.




Fail to feed is usually somewhere in the extractor or ramp/chamber IF the mags are good and seated properly. Sometimes a heavier recoil will help with chambering, but that's just a bandaid IMHO.

All you need to remember is that after you pull the pin, heave that fucker as far as you can, quick.

Sometimes when you buy a used gun, you buy somebody else's problem.

If he NiB'ed the slide (and lied about it on top of it), who knows what else he did.

It seems like you're mad that Glock won't pay the shipping to look at a gun that somebody deliberately messed with.  You're out of line.

I'd either pay to ship it to Glock for them to take a look at it or pay a local gunsmith to look at it.

Caveat emptor.

It's a Glock, not a Craftsman wrench that you can just take in for exchange of a new one.

Glock isn't high end. They are a big name.

i would have sworn they were high end....i mean ruger sends a prepaid label?

Do you have any pics?



If it is coated it might need a fluff and buff to smooth everything out.

If the guy's a Glock armorer, call him.  Be nice.  Ask him if there's anything he can do.  



If not, just pay Glock to check it out.  Shit happens.  It ain't worth losing sleep over a $100 repair.

Let somebody else shoot it to make sure you're not limp wristing it? Is it you only or first Glock? Have you fucked with it at all (taken it apart and not put it back together correctly)?

Glock makes 1 firearm, 1/2 of it is plastic... and some T-shirts...in a few sizes.

Ruger makes many types of firearms. Long guns, semi autos, revolvers, carbines, shotguns, does castings for many other manufacturers

Which one would be high-end again?

In addition to the coating on the slide, what else has been changed?  I'd bet it's been messed with more than you think.
