Thanks everyone. I'm very happy with it. I just went out and put 200 rounds of cheap 115 grain ammo through it to test reliability and it performed flawlessly.
How was the ejection pattern? Any brass going straight back, to the left or even forward?
What's the test fire date on it?
From the short video I got it looks like the brass was pretty consistent. None went forward or came back into my face. Ill try to post the video.
The test fire date is 9/20/12
Cool. I currently have a 27, a 23 and an old 30, and until recently had a 21 that was about 20 years old. I've never had any issues. I've been wanting to venture into a 9mm Glock, but the current woes have kept me away. Maybe the issues are under control.
My brother in FL has an older 19 and 26, as well as a newer 19 with a test fire date in earlier 2012. He's had all kinds of ejection problems with the newer 19 and has gone through several changes trying to correct it. He's waiting to get some of the new Apex parts to see if that corrects it. I was down in FL last week and witnessed it first hand compared to his older 19. The newer 19 would throw brass all over the place, including forward, straight back, etc, with various kinds of ammo.
