"IF YOU BUY A GLOCK 42.........It is not like the other glocks ...(Google glock 42 problems)....there is a break in period of about 300 to 500 rounds....I had problems with the glock 42 I bought, at least one failure to feed per every 2nd magazine during the first 300 rounds.  Hasn't happen after the first 300 rounds.  It did seem to happen more often with NEW cheaper ammo like freedom munitions.  But it is running fine now with the cheaper rounds."

 

In MY experience with several dozen (hundred?) or so weapons, weapons that fail in the "break in" period tend to keep failing.  If there is a reason that I can identify (buff this or file this), I will give it another chance, but for the most part, if I have to wait on some mythical break in period--I find that I almost never get there and never fully trust that weapon again.  It goes back to the LGS and I trade it for another model.

 

As I posted above.  After the 300 round mark it has not given me any more problems.  I took it and my shield to the range this morning.  The Glock 42 ate 100 rounds of Perfecta ammo with no problems  before the 300 rounds it would not do that.  I have to admit the more I shoot the glock the more I love the shield.
