Is this normal?

Do you happen to have a picture of it from the side? I would like to see the entire pistol from the side so I could gauge the gap all the way down the length of the slide if you wouldn't mind taking one.
I've seen some glocks that had different gaps in front between the frame and slide but nothing major. Was it like this when you bought it or did it occur over time? |

Not to troll, but this is another reason I am glad I got the USP. I wonder what could be causing this issue? I wonder if the ramp/barrel locking mechanism tolerences are slightly off, causing the the chamber to be directed downward, thus making the muzzle point in an upwards direction. Just my .02.
ETA: Good looking pistol BTW. I love the color scheme on those babies. |
| Checked mine over last night (Thouroughly!) and it does seem to be exhibiting a lesser amount of sagging. Maybe it's because I don't put a lot of rounds through it at one time. I never usually put more than 50 in a range session through it. It never gets really smoking hot. I'll keep an eye out though. |
| I have a standard model FNP-45, and even with a Streamlight TLR-2 mounted on the front, there is no sag at just under 1,000 rounds. However, the frame rails are in the middle and rear of the gun, so it isn't surprising that you may have some sag. It is polymer and shouldn't affect function at all. FN made those frame rails replaceable though, so should it be out of spec, it can be easily fixed. |
