I just got back from the range trying out a new HK 45 and had one of the guys that work there later to call in his most experienced Glock armorer guru. He came over and I described the two major problems and took one of the magazines the G30SF had tried to eat and told him of the feeding problems showing him a few rounds and how something was nicking the case rim and scratching the case itself. He took it down and looked at the parts and asked if I'd changed anything or had taken the magazine apart. After we discussed that all I did was clean it good and put in a new trigger bar. I gave him some of the ammo I had been having trouble with and the old chewed up mag and a new one for test purposes. He did the paper work and I left it with him. Hopefully, by Monday I'll get a call telling me what's wrong.

Well, I like in hopes. I have a sneaking suspicion the slide rails are a bit too low and that's what's chewing the mags but again, just grasping at straws. There was a lot of discussion about that before on this model...we'll see.

I thought I'd give an update as to the problem with the G30SF. After having the pistol about a week the armorer called me and left a message on the answering machine and said he didn't like the "edge" on the extractor and filed/smoothed it up. He also indicated that he had "pulsed..." something. I couldn't make out what he said and will have to see him Friday when I go in to pick it up. He made no mention, although I showed him the magazine of what caused the chewed up mag and that's another thing we need to discuss. I don't' want another mag ruined and I don't really believe an extractor had anything to do with that. I wish I hadn't missed his call but we'll talk Friday and hopefully he'll be there. I did wonder whey my brass looked so ragged when using this pistol compared to other 45's I have. The rims were nicked and the extractor groove was cut. No way you'd get 10+ reloads from brass from that pistol. I'm anxious to see what he says about the magazine.
