Check the little spring for the slide catch and make sure it hasn't broken or moved position somehow. |
What a piece of shit.
Do yourselves a favour and don't buy the Guarder "Enhanced" Nozzle. I installed a brand new one and this happened in under a magazine worth of shots: http://fairsoft.ca/personal/1200/20130215_190327.jpg |

i have one in my glock 17 and an other one in my glock 18c and no more lock feeling. As for the guarder nozzle i have one and if you have cut your nozzle spring guide(if you use aftermarket slide) it will last long. i'm near 1000 bbs and still strong... |

One way i remedied this is to adjust my grip by widening it. the grip thingy on the tm G17 custom. it spaces the grip and the grip tang a bit. Gripped thumb over over thumb on isoceles stance. Bladed stance changes to have my strong thumb just resting on the butt of my off hand controls the muzzle through the trigger guard serrations with my index and tightens the grip in general in this stance. The grip strap is probably a good idea. on the mechanical side, you can bend the catch spring a bit to have more outward pressure to resist the pressure applied when you accidentaly trip it ... |
It was my thumb, when I switched stances my weak thumb sits right by the catch.
With the stock frame and thumb rest the weak is under the strong. With the HK3 frame and backstrap I can't use the thumb rest so I wrap the weak over the strong in the isosceles. It's just a hair of a change but enough to make it happen. |

Edit: Does anyone know if WE/etc branded magazines are compatible with Marui Glocks? I recall seeing a post here about how the WE magazines were somehow better, but I can't find it again (or anything about compatibility) if my life depended on it. I've been looking for the past half a hour and have yet to find anything remotely relevant. |
I just wanted to chime in that I had the exact same failure about 2 or 3 shots after installing the same Guarder muzzle (from Airsoft Parts). Not cool.

E-luder: might want to change your main page about the recommendation about the Guarder Muzzle being the "best", lol. Quote:

Add another one to the pile, broke within the first mag after I installed a few days ago. As you can see half of it got stuck in the BBH, took me a while to get that out.
https://dl.dropbox.com/u/19469134/Ai...15.23%20PM.png As for the WE mags, they are fantastic. The best 2 upgrades I ever did to my glock were installing a guarder mag catch and switching to WE mags. My G17 was acting sub-par with it's PGC metal slide and only managing around 18 shots on green at 260 FPS. Installed a Guarder metal magazine catch & tested with WE mags, and the results were impressive. WE mag with the new mag catch gets 55 shots on green at 310 FPS. The TM mags were less impressive but they did get a bump, 30 shots & 290FPS. |

It was based on both money value and fitting. The whole thread is about that. I can't really speak for everyone but judging from my experience they were the best in terms of drop in readiness and the duration it lasted during my test which was over a year in a half in continued useage. Mine guarder ones only break in one specific Glock I own. The piston head i have installed provdes a very tight seal coupled with a high intensity blowoff valve. The muzzle couldn't handle the pressure anymore so it cracked in half. lol. But i would still rank them pretty high on the list. |

The big difference is in the fill. While the TM mags sputter when they are full the WE mags fill completely silently. They also dont seem to leak as much (if any) gas while filling. Mine worked great straight from the store (evike), although I know maciej has had some problems with other varieties of WE mags, having to soak the o-rings before use. (1911 if I remember). At half the price you cant go wrong, I always reach for a WE mag before the TM, they are just backups now. |
