Recently bought a Gen4 G19 with the intent to carry it, couldn't pass up the blue line price on one despite the reported issues. Serial starts with a T, brand new, took it out and fired 200 rounds of PMC bronze through it.
- Zero malfunctions with the gun or any of the magazines
- 3 rounds to the face, one landed on my wrist
- Below is a picture of the brass following 15 shots or so, I did not move my right foot for reference,

Now I was hoping you guys could help me figure out if it's me or the sights, I'm inclined to want to blame myself and not the gun but I can't figure this one out. It is not unusual for me to hit low left as I start anticipating if I don't actively think about not doing so, but I've never seen straight left groups.
Here is after 3 magazines, shooting various amounts of shots at various speeds from 7-10 yards

Here is the best 5 shot group I could muster, the two "fliers" were already there,

For reference, here are 13 rounds out of my G21, not fast but not slow bullseye shooting either same distance, still a little left and low, like I said it's something I need a lot more work with, but it isn't directly left.

Is the smaller weapon exacerbating my mistakes? I definitely caught myself flinching with the .45 after several magazines through the 9mm but I felt good with the G19. Can I still contact GLOCK about the ejection or is an apex my only option? Or is 3 of 200 not an issue?
I know there are a lot of these threads and I have read them, I just wish for confirmation specific to me the best one can make from pictures.
