I had a G23 and shot it for years with no problems and I, personally, do not think that it is a problem with quality factory ammo.

I did compare the Glock barrel to a Sig .40 barrel and the chamber on the Sig had greater coverage over the base of the cartridge.

The Glock has a longer less angled feed ramp and it is where this feed ramp meets the barrel that leaves the lower portion of hte cartridge exposed.

I never reloaded .40 brass but know a few people that had issues resizing .40 brass fired from Glocks because a bulge forms.
