I have yet to see this kind of trend with any other gun manufacturer which proves Glock rocks!
exactly what causes a glock to explode like that? just over pressured ammo i.e +P or just the design itself?
Despite what Glockers will try to claim, it's not always a double charged reload, or +P round. It happens plenty with standard pressure factory ammo. It's happened to a member of this forum. The chamber is only partially supported, which means the brass must take the full pressure of the round discharging. The brass isn't always up to the task. Some folks see the partially supported chamber as a design flaw, some say it enhances reliability. I see it as a design flaw, because there are plenty of guns that have fully supported chambers and are every bit as reliable as a Glock. More to the point, people who replace the stock barrel in a Glock with an aftermarket design with a fully supported chamber aren't reporting any decrease in reliability.
snip childish and pointless garbage
I made a reasoned and factual post. If this is the best you can respond with, I'd suggest you back away from the computer and leave the conversation to adults.
Take it easy buddy. Just having some fun.
I actually like all kinds of guns and really don't hate any.
Thanks for giving me the advice to back away from the computer. I'm clearly not ready to sit at the big table with the grown ups

Sorry. It just seems anytime one dares say anything mildly critical of a Glock you open yourself up to a bunch of Chihuahua's nipping at your ankles. I overreacted.
I am interested to know how often this actually happens (KABOOM's that is). There are a high number of Glocks out there and I have never seen anything like that happen. I have read about the unsupported chamber but I would like to know how often this occurs with factory loaded ammo or ammo that is not double charged since some claim that it is not always the double charge. Anyone have any numbers......
Go to google images and type in gun kaboom and count the number of glocks. There are WAAAAAYYYY more 1911 pistols out there so the argument that its because there are a lot of glocks doesn't hold water.
1911 is not a brand, it is a style. 1911 copies are made in the philippines, argentina, brazil, canada, spain, and who knows where else out of who knows what kind of pot metal.
Buy junk; get junk.

We ALL know there have been issues with the .40
And you still don't see them going Kaboom... thank you for helping make my point.
I don't know if you were being sarcastic or not. I honestly hope you know 1911 isn't a style its a model.
