So I bought a used G23 off the EE yesterday.  I took it to the range this morning and put about a hundred downrange.  Speer Lawman, 180 gr.  It functioned flawlessly and accuracy was as usual with a Glock.  However, I looked down at my brass and it is beat up looking.  This is new unfired ammo; the brass has almost a triangle shape rub mark or dent on one side.  Some of it is almost crushed looking.  I changed lots of ammo thinking that that lot might be defective.  Nope.  Still has the markings and the crushing.  I changed to Gold Dot and Hydrashok.  The nickel "brass" is harder and the deformation was not as severe but it was still there.  There is also rub marks in the ejection port area of my slide.  Anyone care to guess what's going on?

sounds like your gun is not ejecting the case very well and it is catching the mouth of the case between the slide and the barrel when the slide is moving forward into battery.

I think so too.  There are brass markings around the mouth of the ejection port area.

I'm in far north dallas.  Thanks for the offer.  

Since it's working 100% I'm not going to monkey with it yet.  I talked to Glock about it and they said as long as it goes bang every time they didn't recommend messing with it.
