Here is a buddy's Glock after reloaded lead. (they were hot loads and this model was prone to failures - .40 cal). The manufacture wanted this back for study or something.

But instead he decided to make a decoration with it :o) Don't get me wrong they are great semi autos and I never leave home with out my g30

Just don’t shoot reloads the rifling is reversed and they blow up. Use factory ammo and its all good. Plus for a carry gun I would never ever have anything in it but factory ammo.

I carry a Glock 23 (compact .40 cal) myself. Never had a problem. Put hundreds of rounds through it. Replaced 1 recoil spring & post. Other than that it's been great.

BTW, I only use jacketed ammo & I don't reload. Not into it at quite that level.

Hey, you know what. I think I just might wait on that Model 17. Those pictures are spooky.

Was your friend hurt?
