Quoted: I have a quick question:
What happens when you shoot bad factory ammo in your GLOCK? Will the GLOCK just "absorb" the bad ammo or will it kaboom?
When using factory ammo for your GLOCK, how can you tell which is considered "bad"?
Is there a specific brand of ammo that works particular well with GLOCKs?
Anymore tips on how to prevent kaboom with GLOCKs?
Ty.

Maybe nothing. It depends what you mean by bad. Kabooms are the result of case failure usually caused by an over/ double charge. Anything will suffer catastrophic failure with the wrong cartridge in it. Glocks dont cause KB's no more than trailer parks cause tornadoes. I wouldn't worry about this with good factory name brand ammo (i.e. winchester, federal, CCI, Remington)
Dont fire ammo if you see something wrong such as a split in the case or the bullet set back.
As per Glocks recommendation, you should fire newly manufactured, commercial (made in us), SAAMI, or Nato spec ammo.
The Glock KB thing has been over exaggerated. Keep your pistol clean and lube it per instructions in the manual. Dont over do it, or put oil in the firing pin channel. Follow above ammo recommendations. Dont shoot lead. Dont shoot other peoples reloads. Dont worry, be happy, and shoot.
