Over the summer I bought a Glock 27, so far I dont even have 200 rounds through and it jams about once every 15-20 rounds. I have tried different ammunition and diffferent magazines. Still the same.

Any Ideas?????
 
How's your grip on firing? I know everybody know about it, but, are you limp wristing it? Is it only doing it while shooting?
 
If you think you may be limp wristing, give it to someone else and let them shoot it. Did the gun always jam or is it a recent problem?

Did you make any alterations to the magazines that you're using? Some folks add an extension to the magazines of subcompact model Glock pistols. If this was done incorrectly, it may cause feeding problems. If you're using quality factory ammo, then you shouldn't be having any problems.

As others stated, you may have issues due to "limp wristing" or other issues related to operator error.
 
All auto can Jam. But I've had my G27 since 1991?? Whenever the first model came out. Hasn't jammed ever on me.
I would let someone else shoot it see if they have any problems. Once every 20 rounds something not right. If it's not limp wristing maybe it need to be looked at like. Could be a bad part in there.I feel for you I would want to take it back.
 
When my 380 jammed, we brought it to the place I bought it. The "experts" there said there was nothing wrong with it. I was just new to guns at the time and had no idea what I was doing. But I brought it to my first gun class and my instructor looked at it and told my husband what it does and why it does it. I was not allowed to use that gun the rest of the session and was allowed to use a Glock. Long story short, when we came home, my husband got my dremmel to work polishing off something near the top of the barrel where the bullet passes through. 'Hasn't jammed ever since. And I ended up buying a Glock after that weekend. Then we had this boating accident...

That's the real problem with society, all these damned boats and their accidents. Forget banning guns, libs should ban boats! "So there I was, riding on this train right?..."
 
I saw a glock 19 have FTE's every so often when my then 16 y.o. son would shoot it. His twin brother nor I had issues with it. After thinking about it I had him stop shooting it with one hand and use both only. (We were doing one handed shooting left and right hand). Anyway, problem went away and i still think he was limp wristing it as that same gun still shoots fine to this day!

...Although I "sold" it for $6.00 to my daughter in VA. She bought me lunch for six bucks and I couldn't bear to see her gunless when she moved. No worries, she was Army MP. ;-)
 
My Glock 22 kept failing to feed. I called Glock and they said it was my outdated magzines. They have 8 generations of mags now. Call them and ask them.
 
In tribute to all the Glock trolls out there, allow me to paraphrase them:

Shoulda bought a 1911.

Get rid of that sissy piece of combat tupperware and get yourself a real gun.

Plastic is meant for toys.
 
I have several Glocks and none had ever jammed until I bought the G36 .45 single stack mag. new. It jammed at least as often as yours. I talked with others having the same problem with only that model. Glock did fix it eventually but didn't say what they did. I only know since the third time I got it back from service it has worked flawlessly. You might want to document when you shoot through the newly cleaned gun; the number of rounds of different types and brands of ammo through separate magazines. They will stand behind their product.
 
Jam?

Please be more descriptive, is it not feeding the rounds, is it not extracting; IE: the casing is tm the chamber, keeping the next round from feeding. Or is it failing to eject; the casing standing similar to a stove pipe?
Jamming is ambiguous.

Before doing this READ THE INSTRUCTION MANUAL! Over oiling a Glock pistol can have serious consequences. A minor one would be a broken trigger spring (saw this on a few occasions). A major one wold be a bulged barrel.
