Just came back from the range and had an issue with my Gen4 G17. After firing all 10 rounds in the magazine, the slide did not lock back. This happened 2 or 3 times during the 100rds put through it. Can anyone tell me what may be causing this?
 
I had the same issue with a brand-new 226 that I decided to take to the range before cleaning.

Cleaned it, hasn't happened since.
 
You may be riding the slide stop inadvertently with your thumb. I do this all the time with my high grip on my glocks and have had to teach/train myself not to do it.
