[QUOTE="Fyrtwuck, post: 3058672, member: 23"] When the gen-4’s first came out there were problems with failure to feed, failure to eject and brass to face. The FTF/FTE problems were caused by the dual spring recoil spring assembly which was new to the 17/19. The RSA was catching on the end of the slide causing it to malfunction. When complaints started coming in their customer service people were telling everyone that the gen-4’s were designed to be used with NATO spec ammo, that the Wally World Winchester White Box wasn’t producing enough recoil. Glock sent me three different RSA’s before I got one that would function reliably. The newer gen-4’s now have a redesigned RSA and slide. Not long afterwards there was a design change in the slide to accept a better RSA. There was also a problem with the designs of the ejector and extractor. The design angle was throwing brass in the face of the shooter. This was also finally corrected. [/QUOTE]
