Went to the range with a friend today. He just got a used (armorer refurbished) Glock 21. It was his the gun's first time out and it is his first gun (although he has shot before). It is the older style frame without fingergrooves, but it had the newer, longer ejector.
He put 200 rounds through it with only one probelm that occurred a handful of times. Each time after the last shot in the magazine, the slide would hold open as it should. He would then reload, insert the new magazine and push the slide release button to chamber a round. The round always chambered, but a few times the trigger did not reset. When this happened, racking the slide always solved the problem.
I could not artificially reproduce the problem. He always used the slide release button so I cannot say if it did this when the slide was pulled back by hand and then released. He had three magazines and I do not know if the failure happened with just one or all of the magazines.
Thanks in advance for the help.
