Broken spring!!

Last week at the range, the slide was getting caught by the slide release before the mag emptied, after further inspection, I noticed that the extended slide release spring broke.

I just swap the original part back and everything is OK now.

The extended release was supposed to be OEM but I'm not sure anymore.

Does anyone know of this type of failure on other glock guns?

Is this common with the glocks?

How can I be sure if the release was OEM?

Any Markings on the factory part?

The original part that came with the gun don't have any markings, but the extended part does.

This usualy happens when the trigger pin bends the spring while reassembling the weapon.

and no its not a common thing with Glocks.
