Well, I guess the inevitable happened.  After putting a combination of well over 1000 rounds through my G26 (9mm) and my G32 (.357sig), I had my first jam.  I had put probably 75 or so rounds downrange with the G32 and on the last round of the mag, the round jammed when feeding.  A quick rack of the slide fixed it and I had no other problems.  I probably should've taken a picture since god only knows when the next time this will happen.  Both of these guns have been amazingly reliable and I'd trust them with my life.  Just thought I'd share since frankly it surprised me that I had a jam, especially with the bottlenecked .357sig round.

sounds like slide lock activated prematurely- which could be related to your thumb/hand hitiing it in recoil and not a gun related malfunction at all

I was just posting my malfunction, regardless of the cause, more as a joke.  I 100% trust both of my glocks and don't expect to have another one for at least another few thousand rounds.  I even love the .357 sig round so much I'm probably going to either look to trade my G26 for a G33 or just get the 33 without getting rid of my 26.  And knowing me, and especially since I'm a member of arfcom, I'll probably just get the new one without getting rid of the old one.

Not to shabby.

I have over 1k in my newest G19 with no malfunctions

But whenever you do get a malfunction it is always good to try and diagnose it as best you can.

I am inclined to say that the jam being on you last round might have had something to do with it.
