I would like to introduce myself too, and ask for membership in this forum. I purchased a new 19 last month (GGBxxx), my first handgun, and have put 500 rds down range, including qualifying for my TX CCW two weeks ago. As I have already read much about it on GT, I will say that all 500 were FMJ except for 25 rds Rem Golden Saber 124 gn +p, and 10 rds WWB 147 gn JHP, all with the Clinton/2183's. I experienced one "nose dive" FTF with the last round on WWB 147. Called GLOCK, said they would send me two "dash-3" followers, received them last night but one is "-3" and one is a "-1." Installed them both and cycling rounds through manually, they both hit the ramp much higher than did the 2183's. I purchased a LEO 15 mag last week at DFW gun show with the "-4" follower, which also looks like it will load higher on the feed ramp than did the 2183. Love my 19 and plan to put 200 JHP's through it at the range this week, various brands, all mags, and don't expect any malfunctions- I think the gun is great, 2183 followers not so much.
