Re: Question for all Glock owners : My Glock jammed!

Well, I never thought I'd post it out loud bit since we are confessing (taking a deep breath) mine did it too!

I've got a G30 and on the first trip to the range I just took it out of the box and went to slinging lead without cleaning and oiling it first. After about a 100 rounds it hung up. IIRC, it went bang but didn't eject the spent cartridge on the last round. I was shooting the range's cheap stuff (nonfactory). I think it was a weak round (a squib?). Checked for obstructions and shot another 100 rounds and it happened again.

I also shot 100 rounds of carry ammo and had no issues.

The range employee said their house stuff was notoriously dirty but I don't think dirt was the real issue. And after a proper cleaning and oiling I had zero problems no matter what ammo was used, even when I shot it in the mop bucket - just kidding about the bucket.

So, I'm curious. Did you clean and/or oil your Glock prior to shooting it?
