WOW! I have never heard of these issues with a Kimber. I have two and have never had an issue. But, every manufacturer has a bad one now and then. Sounds like a Para-Ordnance I bought many years ago. It would put a dent in every piece of brass it ejected. I returned to my buddy's gun shop and told him about it. He sent it back and they promptly returned it and said it was a characteristic of the gun and there was nothing they could do. I wouldn't accept that explanation and he ended up taking it back, applying what it cost towards the purchase of my first Kimber, ironically. I have never owned another Para-Ordnance since. But one of my uncles owns several and he has never had an issue with any of his...go figure!
And yes, there is absolutely nothing wrong with a Glock. I love mine and it has always operated flawlessly. And I wouldn't hesitate to buy another one.
