I've had a Glock 27 since 1997 and have fire thousands of rounds through it. Never had ANY issue with it. Not everything you read on the internet is true.

I have carried and used Glocks since 1985, including reloads. No problems yet.

But then again I don't run my handloads to the max and I use factory ammo for SD

I've never had a KB with any gun, the glocks that seemed to have a problem were the 40 calibres but if you are that afraid,they make aftermarket barrels with supported chambers,also the 40 is a high pressure round,and I've shot some Border Patrol issue stuff that seemed hotter than any stuff I bought off the shelf

using factory ammo you have no reason to expect your Glock to do anything other than operate as designed. The chamber is "unsupported" and that is part of what makes Glocks to reliable. I think there are better platforms out there, but do own a Glock myself - in fact i want another one. if it is what you like, then go for it.

Other brands of pistols have had KBs as well. Just visit the gunzone.com. I've had one KB out of all my Glocks past or present, and it was a case failure on factory reloaded ammo in the 9mm in my G17 maybe eight years ago. Burned my index finger a bit, and blew the magazine out. I still have that G17, and I put a couple hundred rounds on some steel today, just like I do every month. Just get a Glock and feed it new factory ammo.
Welcome to the forum!

YUp, Glock rocks. THere might be better, but they are also more complex, more expensive and just as probable to fail. Glock kicks!

NO reloads, and NO unjacketed lead bullets. NO problems.

Amazing what happens when you read and heed the manual...

Several thousand rounds through my G19, hundreds through my G26. No such issues.

Glocks, the world's most dependable gun.
Get one, you won't be sorry.
