In this lawsuit happy era - he was probably just protecting himself (and by extension, you).

Easy to remove the striker. Goto http://www.glockmeister.com/FiringPinReplacement.asp. Possibly just needs cleaning. Check the pin end - a diet of hard primers can wear it faster. Maybe new spring - unlikely though. As far as the lock back issue pick one or two before you go to an armorer: a) bad ammo; b) bring your grip up the gun under the beavertail; c) your thumb is on the slide lock; d) the slide lock is worn (more possible if you use it to drop the slide on fresh mag); e) the tab on the magazine is worn (try fresh mag and/or try one round in mag, slide forward to chamber then eject by pulling the slide sharp back, see if it stays). Glocks are easy, and they are dishwasher safe...
