Tactical Response send lots of lead downrange

Pretty interesting video. There are 4 stoppages during the above video. But overall, I was still pretty impressed by the weapon's reliability. Stoppage #1 appears to be a failure to fire. The weapon went into battery so it wasn't a feeding problem. Probably a result of a hard primer among what I am pretty sure was the S&B ammo they were using. Stoppage #2 and #3 happened with the same magazine, likely meaning it was a crappy mag that didn't allow the rounds to fully feed into the chamber. The final stoppage appeared to be another feeding issue. This may have also been a bad mag or follower issue. I do not know. I would assume most of the mags they were using were likely heavily used range mags. But I'll just throw that one out there and call it a legit jam. Out of 1000 rounds fired in rapid succession, I'd still rate that as pretty decent reliability.

Regardless, we know the Glock is a reliable weapons platform. But this video just goes to show that even a reliable weapon can malfunction if you fire enough rounds through it. You're gonna get a round that has a hard primer from time to time. You're gonna come across a bad mag from time to time. So thoroughly test any mags before you put them into your carry rotation. And even with a reliable weapon, one needs to practice clearing malfunctions on a frequent basis. There is barely a pause when James encounters a stoppage because he clears them quicker than greased lightning.

I'd like to try this sometime myself, but current ammo prices make me cringe to just think about it. LOL.
