Let us know how it is resolved with glock. I have taken several pistols there myself its a drive but its in my state, they are nice enough, they put the new minus connector in an original g43 I had and fixed the ejector on a well worn g19 that ejected straight into your face. I just don't see the why of the 26 any longer but different strokes for different folks.

The only 124 gr. ammo I could lay my hands on was American Eagle..So far it has functioned fine.. Except yesterday the last round did not lock the action open.. Tried a different magazine today fine function with 124's but a stove pipe with PMC 115's.. Anyone make a good self defense load with 124's???? I have only Gold Dot 115's..

Underwood makes some good full-snort ammo in all the popular weights..
Myself, I'm currently carrying Hornady +P 135gr Critical Duty. 1100 fps from the Glock 17.

Jeeze, if my Glock 26 skipped a single beat, I'd be sending it back, pronto. My 26 eats up everything, and has from day one. Glocks don't require break in periods, and they are not the least bit finicky about ammo selection, so if one isn't eating everything like a champ, there's something seriously wrong with it. Send it back.

Yeah, at this point it would be going back to Glock.
Every normal man must be tempted, at times, to spit on his hands, hoist the black flag, and begin slitting throats.

We are going for a ride in the hills.. I will run a couple magazines though it, and see what happens.. I have 4 others and they shoot fine from round one. I went with this one due to reliability and round capacity and conceal ability ...I really like this model... Guess I will call and return it to Glock..

My 26 is a Gen 5, too. Works like a champ, pushing a thousand rounds already.

Will be calling Glock about returning this one... Had one magazine that did fairly well.. No jams, but failed to lock open the last round.. Decided to try the other two this afternoon... Stove pipes with both.. We will see what they have to say.. Thanks for all the help!!!
