Glock 26 gen 4 failure to feed

[v0lcom13sn0w]

in your picture i dont see a specific part of the frame... in this picture below there is a silver piece infront of the criciform that protrudes into the middle of the magwell... is your gun missing this??? maybe your slide is covering it.

Yeah might be good to get another glock and compare the insides.
I have a gen 4 17 that I can send you pics of if need be?

I say just shoot more, like I said, my 42 was like that until I fired almost 2 boxes through it. It became less frequent as the number of rounds fired went up. Now, I would trust it with my life, as I have had absolutely no issues since. Also pay attention to your grip.

@v0lcom13sn0w 's question about the ejector made me look again at the @rezi 's photo. This just has to be a magazine issue.

Have you taken apart the magazines and just checked everything out? You may want to watch a YouTube video on taking apart a Glock mag. It isn't tough once you get a feel for it, but the first time you take apart a Glock mag, you need three hands and a monkey.

could always swap recoil spring, put a new mag in, put his slide on a known good frame and vise versa. process of elimination.

ive always noticed the piece im talkin about in that picture in my previous post had a slight bend for 9mm and straight ahead for 40s&w.

Are you using aftermarket extended base plates?
Aftermarket extended base plates could mess with your spring tension and affect feeding if they aren't made by a reputable company.

Only thing I can think of is that Glocks have a much different grip angle. Henceforth if not held correctly it will short stroke. IE limp grip. I have a friend that routinely switches from Springfield to Glock and is always getting failures with the Glock. I put money on limp gripping which is hard on a 26 without plus 2 extensions on the mags.

Other than that, it's a Glock, so it's go or no go. If it's no go, chances are if not human error, there is definitely something wrong with it and it is worth having looked at by a Glock smith.
