Recall: Mr. Don Bulver, warrant department, of Glock, Inc. indicated the recoil springs produced before September 1999 may shear off on some of these pistols due to over hardness of the support tube.
Replacement springs will be distinguished by a vertical mark from the center on the front polymer portion of outer ring of the guide rod assembly which will appear to be a mold line.

most of my guns were made way before recalls were invented. they didnt need recalls back then. today unfortunately they make a bunch of trash! what ever happened to true old world craftsmenship? in my opinion it gave way to the likes of wal-mart
i have to check with my brother but i think my granpa's old jc higgins is in there .it's been in the familly for year's and guess what the bolt's broken. . i wonder if i bring it to sears if they will fix it or atleast pay a gunsmith to fix it. not that i would trust shooting it anymore.
my brother has my grand pa's old 12 gauge semi auto and an old bolt action clip fed one that i think in a j c higgin's but i'm not sure . i'll have to call him to find out if the clip fed one is a jc higgin's or not . i found it in an old trailor i bought years ago .and i just gave it to him it was missing the clip..
WARNING: It has been determined that gang members in California and Florida have been converting Glock pistols to have FULLY-AUTOMATIC firing capability. In some regions of California, police are treating any Glock they encounter as a machine gun until proven otherwise. It would be wise to assume that gangs in other localities have also made this conversion.
The conversion from standard to fully-automatic is fast and simple, requiring no technical expertise. The conversion part involved is referred to as the slide cover plate. The original Glock slide cover plate is made of polymer but the bootleg piece is made of steel. The conversion is accomplished merely by swapping one piece for the other. (A “real pro” can make the switch in 15 seconds.)
On a modified Glock the polymer edge of the trigger housing mechanism, which sits just forward of the cover plate, has to be partially cut away. It is apparent without having to remove the slide that a significant amount of material has been cut away, leaving a large void visible through the notch.
Finding a Glock modified in this manner should be considered a clear indication that the weapon has been altered to function in a fully-automatic mode.

They can't wait to get the chance to "out source" some more of our jobs to those scum bags! Hell, i saw an article where they were importing those pieces of shizzit so they could take our jobs! It's an outrage! But, corporate greed being what it is....:nod:
