I disagree with the above post saying it *could* be the newbie's fault.
There was a production run of 4th Gen Glock 19's that just will not function. Sadly, Glock allowed these to go out into the masses.
If you'll read the initial post with my latest update, Glock spokesman said this...
The malfunctions only occur in the 9mm Glocks. They used the new .40 recoil springs in the 9mm frames and the spring is much different from Gen 1-3, so it can not simply be swapped out. If you have a .40 (Which I always swore that I would never carry anything BUT a .40), you're good to go. I...
Hahahaha, touche! Sadly, I think a Hi-Point 9mm would function BETTER. Wow. That's a scary thought, huh?
Anyway - I added an UPDATE to the original post. I finally got ahold of GLOCK today. Check it out.
Good evening everyone!
I'll get right down to it - my brand new 4th Gen Glock 19 is having severe Failure to Feed problems and multiple Failure to Eject issues.
Background:
6th Glock I've owned, mostly own .40's. Carried a Glock as an LEO for 5 years, well over 20k rounds fired. I lost...
Had a very smooth, easy transaction this morning with h8ns8n. He was quick to respond to my classified ad - offered a great deal - and was prepared to make the transaction the following day at a conveniant location.
Would do business with him again. A+
Thanks again!

Hahahahahh ^ One of the best...posts....ever. And I must agree with him; I'm pretttty sure we don't have an operating embassy in Iran. I'm sure we have a presence! - don't get me wrong, but not an official one.
Buy the Glock - help a buddy out.
Plus... you can never have too many Glocks!
You could easily turn that around for $500, if not more, if you realllly didn't want it.
Glock - $425-450
200 rds Ammo - $35
couple of mags - $45-60

That is what I DON'T want. I am a fan of iron sights and want a reliable set that I am comfortable with. Secondly, I don't have the $$ to put into an Aimpoint. I have a panoramic holo sight on there as a co-witness, but I view it more as a last second 'reflex' indicator of bullet strike. I...
THAT is pretty similar to what I had in mind and in fact, sounds worthy of trying out!
In regards to the previous posters;
Even with a real tight cheek weld, the fact that my front sight is just 'hanging out' in a big 'O' is what I don't like. Maybe I need to find a smaller peep hole...
I know this will probably come off as a very stupid question - but here goes;
I am proficient with a rifle and extremely proficient with a pistol.
I am NOT a fan of typical rifle sights.
I DO like pistol sights.
What are the cons for placing pistol 'styled' sights on a rifle...
Whoever owns the S&W MP handgun that Mike is doing in Magpul Flat Dark Earth - is gonna have a niiiiice looking firearm! I saw it when I picked up my Glock in the same color! :D
Lousiana Law states that your car is an EXTENSION of your home with MOST of the same rights of privacy afforded.

Another Great transaction with Olyeller;
I got my Glock back that he was Duracoating in MagPul Flat Dark Earth.
I must say; it looks like an entirely different weapon. I feel like I just picked up a new gun! Awesome work - short turnaround time, and offers great pricing. You won't be...
Dude, if you're willing to pay $500-600 for an AK, PM me! LoL
I have several that I would be more than happy to get rid of for $600 each. WITH mags and bayonets! WASRs, Romanians, etc
Wow.
