Facial injuries from ejected shells

[Scoundrel]

I've been hit by brass from the glock in the stall next to me at the range many times.

Timely topic. My wife and I were at the range today and a couple spent casing found their way down her tank top. Marks between the breasts and by the belly button. I guess she'll wear t-shirts from now on.

Ops,

Although I hate getting rained on with shells from adjacent stations.
I'm very sure I've been guilty of raining on folks near me with my Glock G27/357.

I shot 100+ rounds and only could find around 15 or 20 shell casings anywhere
near me when I swept up.
I do try to shoot on weekdays when the doors open.
Usually there are very few, if any, other folks shooting.

Don't know what I can really do about that?

Probably nothing. It's not that big a deal to me. I just wear a hat with a brim when I go to the range, and I view it as an exercise in maintaining my concentration even when getting hit in the head randomly by casings from next door.

I sold my Glock Gen4 23 for just that problem and about a 3% failure to feed rate. Before I sold it I took it to Glock in Smyrna, Ga. where they put in a new ejector, extractor and RSA. It did not solve the problem. After 500 rounds in my PM9 not a single problem of any kind.

My Glock G27 has a ZERO failure rate in three calibers and 4000+ rounds.
I can live with not being able to find all my shell casings - LOL.

Note: Squeezed off 50 GDHP Duty and 100 Federal Tactical JHP
357 Sig rounds at lunch today. Swept up 20 or 25 casings tops....

And here I thought our (not very often fired anymore) Kel-Tec P-3AT's were the only commonly seen pistol to put ejected cases in a low earth orbit.

Both Bob Day and Jim Clark used to say the could tell just how the extraxtor and ejector on a 1911 were set up...just by the place the empties landed.

I timeshare between KahrTalk and GlockTalk
under the top secret user name Barth.

There are actually lots of folks having issues with their Glocks.
Mostly gen 4 and late gen 3 9mm guns.
Hot brass in the face mostly.

Endless sticky threads about ejector/extractor part numbers,
chickens feet and Voo Doo rituals to resolve the problem.
There is a lot of quiet talk that Glock quality is on the wain (gen 4).

Funny thing is folks using 40-9mm conversion barrels and 40 extractor/ejectors, like me, are fine.

The gen 4 guns in general seem to be hit and miss quality wise.
Lots of folks sending new guns back to the Mother Ship.

[Scoundrel]

Blasphemy!

[Tinman507]

[Barth]

Blasphemy!

Yup, Yup.
Lot's of newbies join that forum after drinking the cool aid,
buying a new gen 4 Glock and being unpleasantly surprised with problems.

There really seems to be quality control issues in Glock Land.

My Glock that I rave about is a gen 3 G27/40 cal

[jocko]

Maybe it is
