Glock 30 Loading and Extracting Problems?
I just bought some Winchester Ranger .45ACP 230gr. and when I hand cycle the rounds to empty the magazine I usually get one or two that stick and I have to cycle the slide again to get them to extract. When I shoot them I do not get this problem. I know that hand cycling is not recommended. It isn't that they are difficult to extract per say. What happens is one will just fling out a lot further than the others with some tension while the others come out with ease. Also when I try to chamber a round occasionally with RA45T they will stick I guess, and you have to pull the slide back harder to get it to load. I feel like it may be my fault, maybe riding the slide? But better safe than sorry. I also tried WWB, RA45T and Sellier and Bellot and tried 3 different magazines while hand cycling all the rounds through the Glock. I had at least 1 or 2 shells give me trouble extracting in each mag. I field stripped it checked out the extractor and it looks fine, no cracks or anything abnormal. One WWB locked up in the chamber and wouldn't extract until I dropped the mag. Wtf Keep in mind this does not happen while live firing so I am at a loss. I feel like as long as it works fine while firing i'm ok and i'm doing something wrong while hand cycling it. Does anyone think that this warrants a call to Glock or a trip to the local armorer?
