But alas it is off and on the Metal Body!
But another problem has come to mind. The two springs (refer to the g19 or g17 isometric diagram, it is the two springs labeled #23, or the ones that slide into the nozzle thingy).
The problem happened after emptying out 3 magazines on a target. The frame stopped cycling properly, and would get stuck halfway though its cycle. So I took it apart to see what was trying my patients, and both springs were deformed.
So I replaced them, and layed down some covering fire on a pop can, and same thing happened again. So after another take down, 1 of the new springs were deformed (rather mangled actually).
So I have no idea what is going on! (My g19 has only been upgraded with a metal frame and a heavier blowback spring)
Any ideas would be great!!

If the springs are properly installed, they should not deform from normal use.
When reseating the blowback chamber inside the slide, your need to make absolutely sure that the chamber springs are not being crushed. They need to be fully seated into the chamber block, as sometimes they protrude out, thus they can become bent if you push the blowback chamber in. It helps to reseat the blowback chamber by using a screwdriver and pressing the springs from the view of the ejection port into place while sliding the chamber back into the slide.
I've destroyed my fair share of springs by not sliding the chamber block back in when the springs weren't seated all the way in.
