Wow! That's weird. You could definitely get your money back FWIW. |
|
Like , If we put this mouse in this beer bottle eh, maybee they'll gives us like some free beer eh? \
\ Take off eh. |
|
experimental multiple projectile round?
Maybe a way to deliver food really fast? Shoot the enemy until they're too fat to attack you again |
|
Well there goes the claims that this stuff is anywhere near as good as the boxed stuff.
|
|
Seriously though folks, are these truly floor sweepings? How could this get past any type of QC?
|
|
I imagine that would've been interesting to detonate..err I mean fire. Jeez, makes you wonder.
|
|
My reaction exactly! I'm almost shure it is a pretzel stick, so how in the hell does a pretzel get into ammo? What would have happened if i tried to shoot it? It's bad enough that I have to hand sort each of 1000 rounds to find which are good and which aren't, I could have bought twice as much Wolf for the price I paid. |
|
|
its for SHTF so u have something to snack on when the zombies have stopped for a few seconds
|
|
Normally a pretzel stick has grains of salt on the outside, not gun powder...
|
|
Bet you're not in a hurry to shoot the rest of the stuff. That's disturbing.
|
|
Holy shiite, I thought a few tracers in my XM855PD was a newsworthy event
|
|
Hmm maybe we ask Michael Moore if he'd like to try a new "fast food pretzel"
|
|
Man, I was going to try it out and sort the bad stuff out, but that's pretty disturbing. I mean just damn.
|
|
WHAT THE FUCK?!?!
I'm pissed. That and the dangerously set back rounds are TOTALLY unnacceptable, but atleast you could identify the set-back rounds. And don't try to remind me that he ID'd the bad round because it wasn't seated, the foreign object could've been shorter. Man I am seething. Had that been something harder than a prezel and you shot it you could be trying to count how many fingers you have left with one eye right now. Federal better come up with some fucking answers, RIGHT NOW. |
|
Well it's obviously there to slow the rapid expansion of gasses causing a reduced muzzle report.
next best thing to a supressor if you ask me.... |
|
So you found a pretzel in your ammo? have you examined it any closer?
|
|
Hmmmmmm.......... That must be the experimental 32 gr. Olin Pretzel projectile. Talk about Frangible! |
|
|
Now if only I could find ammo in my pretzels. |
|
|
I guess the question now is what to do about it? I have no issues with the vendor and will continue to do buisiness there. Federal, however has some explaining to do. It's more of a safety issue that just getting some crappy rounds in the mix.
|
|
Someone had to deliberately place that inside the case. I cannot see how it could have gotten there any other manner. THAT is disturbing. This ammo could likely be used to defend someones life....that is upsetting.
|
|
Think someone might be trying to sabatoge ammo that might be going to Iraq and Afghanistan?
|
|
If you are really serious about this as others here are, you should take this thru the motions officially. That way you can be sure to get an explanation instead of a general reply. Finding a foreign object inside the round is disturbing to say the least.
|
|
Case was dated 01. |
|
|
Does anyone have an idea what would have happened if this round had been fired?
|
|
What would happen if you had fired the Pretzel round?
Would there have been enough powder to lodge the bullet in the bore? What happens to the pretzel? |
|
There have been a few other comments about others who have found rounds in their mix that are out of the ordinary. Can someone else check theirs to see what's inside?
I guess I'm going to have to go thru mine. I have 5 unopened cases. Maybe they'll ask for the ammo back and exchange it all. |
|
I think at best it would have misfired lodging a bullet in the bore or not fired at all!!!But it definately looks like a pretzel and I dont think that was an accident..I would call homeland security and tell them you got a hot one,, er well maybe not so hothinking.gifSend the whole batch in to get checked out..Makes me wanna check all my discount fed stuff real close ,,,thanks for the headsup!!!
