Point taken. Thanks.

Gunscribe:
As a Glock Armorer I second what Chris said.

Thanks everyone. I got it cleaned up really well. Much better than I expected to be able to. I put a very, very tiny amount of oil on the surfaces of them and reassembled the gun. I was hoping to go out this weekend and give it a test run, but it decided to finally dump some snow on us so none for me. I still haven't had a chance to go shoot the "World's Ugliest Glock" yet.  :-[ Terrible, terrible stuff.

Like I mentioned earlier, a little "grease" on the rails... Like STOS or similar, something that stays put a little better than gun oil, may keep that area from rusting again.

I also use a tiny amount of grease on the connector area where the trigger bar slides.

Otherwise I use Mobil1 5w30

What is this glock armorer thing your talking about? I have torn those guns apart with nothing but a armorers tool, they are about hte most simple gun you can ever work with.
If your a lefty and its your daily carry, that might explain the rust, or if you carry in a shoulder holsterif your a righty. Body sweat will eat up metal with no protection on it.
I dont agree with shooting it until it breaks though. It could cause more damage to the gun than if you just replace it. Or it could injure you or another person, or worse yet, you pull it to use it and defend yourself or others and it jams/breaks.
Maybe for some thats a risk they would want to take but im not that brave lol.
My opinion is that you should send it in to see if its a defect.
