Im really new to auto pistols. but i have to ask why does my glock have a rectangle shaped firing pin? simular of rimfire. Are all glock pistols like this? strange thing is, im a reloader and have really never noticed this on used spent brass cases that i have picked up and cleaned lately, i guess i overlooked this.
