    1 piece of brass hit me in the forehead during a mag dump with Brown Bear and using a G18 Magazine.

    1 Piece of brass hit me in the shoulder using the Federal with a standard G17 magazine. All others were consistently to my 3:30, slightly short of the ejection distance of my 2010 OD G19.

    Again, not bothered by this as Ive taken random brass to the body with multiple brands before. This was two random short ejections with under powered ammo (Brown Bear anybody?).

    Before I get jumped again by non-readers, I will continue to update this thread until I get to 1000 rounds fired. Firing my Ranger +P's is starting to get expensive, so I'm gonna stick to the Federal from now on.
    Well, I replaced the extractor at around 800 rounds with an Apex a few months ago. I was taking maybe 1 piece of brass to the top of the head every magazine, and I figured I might as well preemptively fix any issue before it got bigger. The Apex extractor is the fix, and ejects brass very consistently at around 3:30. I wish it had a loaded chamber indicator, but my Glocks spend most of their time loaded so its rarely a question for me. I ate a little crow, and Im not ashamed to admit it



    My 2011 G19 continues to run like a top with over 2-3k rounds through it.

    Had a round fail to eject and lock back (last round) in my otherwise flawless G17. S&B regular 124gr is again suspect. The round sounded MUCH quieter than the previous rounds, I figured it was a squib, it wasn't. Must have been a round improperly loaded. Interesting to note that the gun just went back into battery with the empty casing. Had it not been for the sound, I would have pulled the trigger again.

    Need to get my hands on more S&B 9x19 NATO....

    Ran an STG warrior pistol class with my g4 g19 w/ apex extractor.

    About 700 rounds through the gun in two days - TULA 115gr 9mm.

    No shells to the face, no issues ejecting/extracting.

    Gun is dirty as hell now though

    Gun has more than 10k less than 16k through it - I stopped counting.

    I have not shot it too much but...
    Got a like new *looking* G17 with unknown round count last Jan.
    BTF every time through half a box.
    Changed the ejector, same thing with the rest of the box.
    Apex extractor installed, one or two mags through and I can live with it.
    No failures yet (small sample)and accuracy is really good.
    I'm hoping to get it out this weekend for at least 100 rds more through it, this time with the light.
