Glock Extractor Issues Gen 4 - Gen 3

[arcticlightfighter]

Forward...you can push it from the rear of the housing with a small flat head screw driver

Thanks guys, didn't think about just pulling it. I've never pulled an ejector before. What direction does it come out? Up or forward?

Take out the trigger housing pin and you can just lift the housing up and with pliers pull it foreword. Then push the new extractor on as far as it will go

I still can't believe Glock is puttin out this trash. I had all the issues. Finally swapped parts in my G19, but it's not 100% and remains a suppressor host range toy. So disappointing.....

I'll never part with my 2006 built G34!

I had BTF issues with my G19. They were resolved with a Gen. 4 ejector. It really made a huge difference and cost $6.

Thanks again guys. I know how to detail strip a GLOCK and can perform any needed repairs. I'll try GLOCK tomorrow or Monday, hopefully they'll send me the ejector and not want the pistol like they did with my early GEN4 19. If so I'll just order it online, cheapest price I found was $7 on Glockmeister.

Just picked up a LAV G19 FDE RTF2 GEN3. Noticed it had the older 336 ejector and wondered if I'd have BTF issues and I was right. It zinged them in my face over my left shoulder, just plain everywhere. I've checked online, looks like GLOCK is the only place I'm going to be able to get a 30274 ejector from. I hope they just send me a new housing and not want the pistol back.

So did you really need the feedback provided by 5 different posters or were you just being sarcastic in your second and third posts? If so, what what was the point?

GLOCK will not send you parts unless you are an armorer.

Last I checked one of the reasons for talk forums was for posting questions to receive answers, which you were one of.

I did not know you just purchase a GEN4 trigger housing and pull the ejector to fix the issue I was having, I thought there was a GEN3 housing with the correct ejector. Again you were one of the people that quickly responded and got me going the right direction.

I was raised to say "Thank You" in situations like this and I also wanted to point out I knew how to do the work after finding out what I needed to do.

But apparently you have an issue with that.

BTW...a local GLOCK armorer had the part I needed and the swap has been made. So hopefully my issue of BTF will be cured.

Everybody chill.

I've got a Gen 3 G34 that's been getting stovepipes with 115gt Prvi, about 1 every 40 rounds. I replaced the ejector with an old OEM and it still hasn't solved the issue. Could this be an ejector issue?
