Are all of the current production Glock models having Brass To Face (BTF) issues or is it certain models? Does it affect both the Gen3 and Gen4 models?

Most of what I've read was regarding the G19. Mine has not had this issue pop up yet. Not to say that it won't. I don't have enough rounds thru her yet. Seems the magic number was after 1K+ rounds the BTF would start. My gen4 g17 has over 2K down range and BTF hasn't cropped up, hopefully won't.

Search. There are several threads about this issue. Some in the handguns section and at least one in the Apex manufacturers section.

As I understand it, its only with 9mm models(or a major majority are 9mm). It is not every one, most of the guns are fine, some have issues. my buddy got a g4 g19, and it spits casings into the forehead. It was tula ammo, however. Im hoping the apex extractor fixes it.

Mostly serial numbers that start with P through now which I think is V,
late model N serial numbers also were affected.
Try to get some good like new 2003 to 2008 9mm Glocks---
Thats what I did :)

OP- Welcome to M4C. If you'll hit the search button, you'll find a number of threads discussing this topic. In fact, one is about 100 pages long with recent additions.
