Did you clean your mags? I would imagine if you had some really gunky mags (gunky from shipping grease, ect.) it might interfere with pushing the new round into the chamber.

Good luck! Hope Glock does you well!

I sell part time for a local shop and presented the owner with your problem. He would have gotten you a new one and deal with glock himself. That's why I love work for him.

My shop wasnt very helpful as i said....I know not to buy from them in the future. As far as getting a new one, glock said they would replace if they were unable to fix the issue.....

I find it ridiculous that i buy a brand new gun...have problems, have to pay to ship it then wait 6-8 weeks...

Hey Brad,
I recommend you not get too stressed, it will take as long as it takes, right? You don't want them to do a sloppy job, do you? Besides that I think that most of us at one time or another have bought a gun that some adjustments made to it. I have a G19 and it's worked flawlessly from the day I took it out of the box and that's the type experience that prompt people to buy a Glock but, you know as well as I that no manufacturing process is without it's failures.
Glock will do right by you, I'm certain. Their reputation is the key to their future.
In Oct. 2009 I bought a Walther PPK/S in .380 by S&W and that gun has spent more time at the factory than it has in my possesion and now that I got it back recently there's absolutely no ammo available, ya can't win!

I agree. Glock will work to fix the problem.

Guess I'll mark that G-23 off my list of wants. I'll just stay with my old G-19 Gen 3.

I wouldnt do that....just one bad experiance.

Thats not normal or acceptable for a Glock, call Georgia and talk to customer service they'll make it right.

Sorry to hear. 23 is a good pistol though.

Ok....Got the gun back from Glock (took 3 weeks total, so not too bad). Says they replaced the ejector and recoil spring. Just by cycling the slide i can feel its not as tight as before. Shooting on Sunday and will report back once more!

Good news!!! I hope you have fun at the range next sunday and that everything works fine...

Ill be waiting that new report!!!

i didnt read all the posts because im impatient, but did you use the speed loader that came with it? my father in law used it on his 36 and it jammed every 4th round. he loaded by hand and no jams or misfeeds happened. i also had the same with my 17. it jammed every mag i loaded with it. and i shoot blazer brass and wwb.

Are they going to reimburse shipping cost?

FWIW, S&W pays freight up front and has been turning warranty work around in about 2 weeks.
