the other is crud buildup, particularly in front of the kind of square back of the barrel. a glock can fire out of battery if the slide doesn't go all the way forward. Translated, i am pretty sensitive to keeping that area pretty clean.
I would want to see a new round stuck just in the barrel, with it removed to see if it's fitting the way it's suppose to.
I managed to blow up a model 23, due to a squibb load. My fault, not the guns. It cracked the barrel, and blowed the mag out, and cracked the slide. Didn't hurt me, other than what i left in my shorts. A new slide and barrel and gun is still working.
I eventually went to KKM barrels on all glocks just they protected that casing a lot better than the factory barrel.


It was lubed on the frame rails. Clean as a whistle before I started firing, and I had fired maybe 2 mags full through it. Definitely not a dirty gun. Not sure what you're seeing. But I have fired my Glock 19 VERY dirty and never had a hiccup. They usually go and go.

I've never run Glocks wet like my AR15's.




Yeah, my glocks are rarely that clean, no issues with them from having a lot more fouling than that.
