I recently traded a LNIB G21, that a serious BTF problem, (you haven't lived until you've been smacked in the head with a peice of hot, .45 brass)
I went through this ordeal with a series 70 Colt 1911 a couple years ago. Talk about a company run by maroons that refuses to update it's products you're talking Colt hands down.
They refuse to upgrade the GI style ejector to the extended combat style and that pistol would throw nearly every round straight back at me. There's nothing like getting hit by a hot .45 case and it's even more fun when it glances off the bill of your hat and lands behind your shooting glasses.
An extended ejector properly contoured totally cured the issue.
Had Apex tactical made a extractor for the G21, I might have kept it, it was bleeped accurate, and very soft shooting.. but the BTF was it's fatal flaw.. It's kinda hard to shoot the pistol, and duck the brass coming at you at the same time..down the road it went, sombody else can fool around with it...If Glock makes a Gen5, G21,and the BTF issue is resolved as it is on the Gen5 G19's, I might reconsider..
The BTF issue isn?t corrected on my Gen5 G19. It doesn?t happen with every round but enough to tick me off a bit. It may be ammo related but I?m not willing to buy more expensive plinking ammo just for the Glock.

Purchase the 19X Ejector and your problem is then solved.
The latest 9mm pistols have the upgraded ejector.
