Seriously?

I got this G19 right when they released the Gen 4's. RSA is marked 0-3. Over the few hundred (300-500) rounds I've put through it (mostly Gold Dots +P), I've had a handful of stovepipes and rounds to the face. Glock just sent me a new RSA (0-4-3) to try out. Installed it and took it to the range. On the 3rd shot, I had a stovepipe with a double feed. WTF? Many casings to the face later (about 2 mags worth), I get another stovepipe/double feed combo. At this point, I go upstairs to the gun shop to ask what trade-in value for a G19 is. What should I do? Even if I send it back to Glock, I don't know that I can trust my life on this POS.

You need to call Glock they have a new ejector for the Gen 4 9mm. You have to send them your Glock for it to be installed. Make sure you have them pay for shipping both ways.

You will be asked what you are using for ammo.

Yeah I'd call glock and get the new ejector and extractor. I've seen nothing but good reviews on them both.

It needs the new ejector. Call Glock and tell them that you have a Gen4 G19 that stovepiped and some cases hit you in the face, and that you heard there's a new ejector for Gen4 to fix it. They'll want you to send the gun in to them so they can install the new ejector, while they have it they'll update the connector to a "dot" connector and the latest guide rod if your Glock doesn't already have those. They should offer you a prepaid shipping label but if they don't, ask for one. Remove any aftermarket parts besides sights before you send it to them. There shouldn't be any need to send magazines.

The ejector that's in your gun right now should be marked "336", the new ejector that will fix the ejection problems is marked "30274".

Here are some pictures of the new ejector: http://www.glocktalk.com/forums/showpost.php?p=17921092&postcount=15

Gold Dots +P, some WWB. No steel or reloads.
