I read on here that someone was claiming that either the 21SF/30SF had some widespread issues?

True? - If so, what are the problems, have they been fixed?

Or just horse crap?

Why would a slight change to  the dumbest most inconsequential part of the gun suddenly make it have problems?

The singular problem with the SFs are that they are in short supply due to their overwhelming popularity.

we have MANY 21sf's issued out, including mine.  no issues whatsoever.  I've had mine for over a year now...no probs.  this includes a week long instructor course, many rounds fired and i was too lazy to clean it every night, it kept working, so I kept getting lazier.  I think I cleaned it once....don't hate me!  Maybe I'm sick or something but, I think a glock looks beautiful when it is absolutely filty.

That's because Glocks love to talk dirty!!  

I'm hoping to be getting a 30SF soon and thought that I might try to get one with the non-amb mag catch though.

Yes, I have a big problem with my 30 SF-the problem is getting it back from folks who test fire it. I have to stand right behind them. Then they have a problem getting the grin off their goofy faces!
Yes, I like mine a lot.

I've had non-stop problems with the G29SF.  The problem is that I don't own one yet.

SUPPOSIDLY: there have been increased reports of the "SF" compact big bores having reliability problems, but its connected to the trigger/trigger bar area IIRC...but i only heard this on the grapevine and on other sites (like glock talk)

take that FWIW

imo: its nothing

There is one problem I know of regarding the 21SF... I DON'T HAVE ONE!

Umm ok, I read it on this site - the guy seemed serious and knew what he was talking about - it had something to do w/ what alphaghost said

Sorry. I sleep with my 21SF. Don't like people talking unfounded crap on it. It is the one gun I always have if I have nothing else.

Mine is 100% reliable just like every other Glock I've owned, shot, seen shot, clean, dirty, cold, hot, dry, or wet.

No Problems man No Problems.

The only prob I had with it was the ambi mag release.....It was sticky at first, but that went away after a week or so

The problem with mine is it's appetite for ammo.  I just won't stop shooting!

Anyone remember the "mystery line/crack" reported on some Glock 21SF's? Mine is a KVS LE model with the 1913/ambi and it has this "line". Doesn't appear to be a crack and after a few thousand rounds, it hasnt changed one bit. Im guessing if it were a crack it would have grown or progressed with use. Does anyone remember this? What was the resolution?

I cant believe you guys don't like the 1913/ambi G21SF's. Best looking Glock ever... Other than not being able to use a SERPA or the zillion already availible G21 mags, its pretty awesome.

I have both (a 21SF and a 30SF).  Zero problems.

If you want a problem, that is likely the best I could come up with, but not how 223spree described...

I think the ambidextrous released gun not being able to accept the older magazines isn't looked at too highly. I picked up a few Glock 21 magazines before the election, and then found out I could only get an SF model with the older release or a non-SF gun. Now, I was a little pissed, but was still going to get one. Went to the range to check on a gun I bought online, and asked the owner about one. Started talking about other .45 polymer guns, and he offered a new PX4 that would be there in the next few days... which I felt was better than the two or three month wait on him getting a Glock for me (sold the magazines for what I paid for them, plus the loader I picked up). So, failures weren't the reason for me going a different route, but no availability (if you wanted the only two things I disliked; the magazines and then no second strike).

I'm having a problem with the temptation to surrender even more of my scarce finances to buy both 10mm SFs

I have both the G30 SF and the G21 SF with the Picatinny Rail.  (also a G36 )

I am still looking for a concealment holster for the 30 SF and a Safariland Duty Holster for the 21SF.  (383 ?)

Can anyone advise ?

Thanks

Comp-Tac MTAC.  Very concealable and comfortable.  I have one for my G33 and G30SF.
