All Armed Officers:
For the last several months, (this agency) has been receiving information regarding misfires with duty and training ammunition. The misfires experienced appear to be light hits from the striker assembly.
Our investigation found that the light hits are due to an accumulation of small shavings from cartridge brass in the striker channel located in the slide of the pistol.
It is important that all Glock pistol slides be examined and cleaned yearly by an FMO or a firearms instructor who has attended the Glock Armorers Class.
I have deleted the agency to protect the innocent and the guilty.
Please don't be offended if you carry or prefer Glock. Just check out the striker channel from time to time.
