As blockmaan2000 already pointed out, all guns KB from time to time. The most common cause being reloads that have been loaded way above factory specs, often referred to as "hot loads." In my experience, I would say there are two main reasons that you hear about Glock KB's more than others:

1. There are more Glocks in circulation than any other type of pistol.

2. I get the feeling that there is a certain amount of anti-glock sentiment within many gun circles for whatever reasons. Blocky, plastic, different, not a 1911, unusual safety feature, etc.

Anyway, from my experience I feel like those are the two main reasons you read and hear about more Glock KB's than other manufacturers. I don't think that Glocks have a higher statistical probablilty to KB than other makes.
