An update on my two.
Gen3 P** serial and Gen3 S** serial.
I swapped the ejectors to the newer units.
Limited testing so far(a few mags through each) but the over the head and chest ejections have stopped. Still erratic & dribbley, but no malfunctions. Hopefully these combined with the APEX parts will get them to "perfection"...

Just fired the first 150 rounds through my G19 Gen 3 TBR pre-fix 4-26-12 factory date. Most cases ejected about 4'oclock but had about 5 skim the top of my head and one go down range. Also experienced a stovepipe, keep in mind that I was shooting 115gr Tulammo steel cased ammo. With that said I was extremely happy with the accuracy of the gun.

Anyone know of a source for factory non-dip extractors? I managed to get one from GT Distributors based on a post on Lightfighter from AZ Larry. They just could find the one and I don't know if it was old or new stock but would like to find one if anyone has a lead.
As a side note, GT Dist service was amazing. Todd Ritz individually went through a bunch of extractors to find a non-dip and had it to me next day. Very impressed.

It wasn't me, it was echo, I tried to get some and got the wrong ones. I suspect they were old pre MIM extractors. That said I shot both my long slides yesterday and have no issues. While extraction is weaker than my older G19s, the new ejector has everything going to the right. My shooting buddies are advising me to stop obsessing about getting 6ft extraction and relax. I've had zero malfunctions and no longer take brass to the six.

I have a SGR*** (wondering when it was made) Glock 17 heading my way this week, I'll let you know how it performs.

I have a Gen 3 G19 serial SPC***, with a Feb 2012 test fire date that is now giving me issues. It started at about the 500 round mark with cases to the face. Now at the 1k mark, and I have had 3 stovepipes and about 2 to 3 cases to the face per magazine in the last 300 rounds. It has a dipped extractor with a 2 on it and the 336 ejector. Heres to hoping that apex sorts this whole thing out.
