So my wife and I rented a Glock 42 a few weeks ago at H&H. We ran a box of american eagle through it and it functioned just fine and she seemed to enjoy shooting it. So we go back today to rent it again, so she could do a side by side comparison to the S&W bodyguard 38 revolver she borrowed from a coworker. Right off the bat we had feed issues. I thought maybe she was limp wristing it at first, but then I gave it a go, and same thing. Seemed like it happened at least once or twice per magazine load. Granted this is a rental gun, a popular one at that, and looks like it hadnt been cleaned in forever. I also had several failure to ejects. Now I am wondering if the cleanliness of the weapon would affect that, the extractor that is. The ammo was lawman, so maybe that was it too, but I cant imagine the ammo causing that type of failure unless the casings were just off somehow. So anyone who owns this pistol, can you tell me how many rounds you have through it, if you have had any similar problems or anything like that? I think of all the guns in this category, this is the most comfortable one for her to shoot so far, but I don't want her to carry it if its going to have those kind of problems.
