Skalkaho Slim Posted September 9, 2002 Share Posted September 9, 2002 Have a pard who owns a Glock 29 (short and stubby 10mm). Been shooting "American" brand ammo, who in fact uses Starline cases. The extractor seems to pull free of the rim after pulling the case about halfway out of the chamber. You can see a definite "ding" on the rim where the extractor seems to take a small chunk of brass with it. It shoots Blazer ammo just fine, which confuses me because I thought that Blazer uses aluminum cases, which should be softer than brass (I think). Seems to shoot nickel brass just fine as well. I can't imagine this being a problem with the gun, but rather the ammo. Anyone else have this problem with Starline brass or other brands? Toujours Pret!

Flexmoney Posted September 9, 2002 Share Posted September 9, 2002 Could it be that the load is such that the brass is still expanded against the chamber as the extractor/slide try to pull it out?

Skalkaho Slim Posted September 9, 2002 Author Share Posted September 9, 2002 The brass doesn't seem to have any real bulging at all. Upon jamming, the slide is about halfway back, but the case is no longer attached to the extractor. The case is just sitting there, halfway out of the chamber. After locking the slide back and dropping the mag, the case falls right out very easily. Slim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
