its sad to say .. but sometimes parts fail even on brand new guns ... be lucky and happy that it is a readily available piece
true, but honestly I doubt that broken loading nozzle is my only problem. using hand to manually cycle it, I found that the hammer isn't always on the ready position each time I cycled it.

I don't know on other Glock, but on G18 there's a small flat surface that readied the main hammer but it can't connect properly against a small shallow nub on the slide part. sometimes when I pulled the trigger nothing happened, but when I touch the end of the slide the hammer reacted as quickly to fire. as if I need 1mm more of that little nub to hit the small flat surface that readies the hammer.*

* if you are confused reading my explanation put no worries on your head. it's really hard to explain that properly..
