How much barrel play should be happening while the gun is locked back??Im having issues w live rounds extracting from the gun...i have this funny feeling that the barrel is so loose its pulling the ammo down @ an angle while trying to extract either getting caught on the lip of the next round or the top of the magazine.Got a complete upper from 80p aG26 FDE slide with a zeffer barrel.I checked my other builds & neither move as much as this 26.Ive run the snap caps thru w no issues but snap caps are alot smoother & a bit smaller.Im gna see if i can upload a video of the movement.But has anyone ran into this.Im running OEM mags too a 26 & 19 & both do the same.But my 19 cycles no problem

What is this?^^^ I would recommend nobody requesting access, because it requires your google account sign-in, possibly identifying yourself.

Sorry guys.Trying really hard to turn my mp4 file into a pdf i really need help with this.Tried for about an hour & the only way i could do it was to copy the link that i had to send myself in email form.Anyone got better ideas on how an android user can upload a video??

You should be able to post the direct link and turn off any special permissions (where viewers have to submit a request, which includes their google credentials (email). The media embedding plug-in we have will automatically embed any GoogleDrive files. It should work. I will see if I can do it.

OK..... here: Change from restricted to "anyone with link." Then post the link, and I think the rest will be automagic!

OK. Yep... just post the link, and the video will embed right here on the forum.
 
Idk if its gna work i give up 4 the night ill try 2morrow...im so aggravated.Ill delete if u say it asks 4 permission
 


Hooray! The video embed worked!

OK... I just unloaded my EDC factory Glock 27 and locked it back. It does the same thing. Maybe not quite to the same extent... but it rattles around. Normal, I think. I never really paid attention to it before.

So, it did this with live ammo at the range (the feed problems)? Did it do it with different kinds of ammo? Or did you just test one kind of ammo? FMJs? HPs?
 
Thanks so much for the help Racer!!cant thank you enough!!I have another post in here somewhere & maybe theyre u can see what its doing to the mag.Its catching on something & not allowing me to pull back all the way to extract.Looks like its coming out in a downward motion
