    I don't think I will. I called Glock, told them what it did, the round count, and the rep cut me off and said send it in, it'll be totally rebuilt.

    I'm thinking about having Robar do all the metal internal parts in NP3+ when I get it back.

    If these 19s and 43s end up like that, I'll be sick. I sold off a great fleet of 9mm 239s and 226s to go Glock.
    Any idea of round count when it would not reset and did it fail to fire?

    Never a FTFire or any other malfunction. It still resets, but the trigger does not go all the way forward and is getting harder and grittier. I noticed this the last time I shot it, the round count is a little over 4200. Not much dry fire at all, but has been carried a lot, in very dusty, sandy conditions. I thought it was just dirty so I detail stripped and cleaned it, did not improve a bit. I swapped connectors, no change, swapped slides from a properly functioning 43, no change. Something is amiss in the 43's frame.

    If it's a wear issue, I'm thinking that Robar's NP3 or NP3+ plating may fix the issue, or at least prolong the life of the parts.

    Wonder if trigger spring a issue? Looks like TYR is still under 4K and that's the highest round count I could find, but I probably missed somebody searching thread.

    An issue with the striker channel liner? Assuming the Gen 5 still uses one.

    Exactly what my 43 did.

    My 43 shows no change when swapping slides with a different one.

    So that points to something in the lower.
