can you take full 360 pics of the bullet and a pic of the feed ramp?
|
|
Well, at least the weapon receiver did its job even if it is trashed.
|
|
|
bet you would never see that with the old Scorpion! damn all plastic guns!
|
|
That's the second one of those to blow up like that on this forum.
Scary. The last guy got his replaced by CZ at no cost. |
|
Kind of looks like the bullet set back and the rear of the case exploded on firing.
|
|
DAAAYUM! I see bullet setback, and maybe an extractor claw gouge, but I don't know how it could fire out of battery, and how the casing blew out the ass end. Did you find the rim anywhere? Primer cup? Range rental gun? Please explain to they lady that what happened is EXTREMELY rare, and she should get back in the saddle ASAP.

dang.
so that receiver is trashed? I hope they didn't have SBR paperwork pending. |

Bullet set back like that is why it is muy not good to clear and chamber the same round multiple time. Short rounds make good grenades.

Range rental gun. Didn't locate any additional pieces. Like I said we had to drive the round out of the barrel.
My feeling was possible bullet set back- or that the bullet came like that from the factory. She would not have noticed the difference. The round in question wasn't loaded multiple times the box of ammo came off the shelf at the range. |

I'm surprised that a range would allow Blazer in one of their rentals......
with so many brass cased alternatives, I don't know why anyone would shoot that shit..... glad the shooter was ok... |

Wow I have ran thousands of rounds of Blazer aluminum out of my full auto Uzi with zero issues . I do not on the other hand use them in my Mac due to how far out of battery the round is when it goes off .
|
|
Hmmm. The round could have been been fired out of battery and the bullet being pushed back may have occurred while you were extracting it. Just a theory.
|
|
Appears ammo related.
Sheisty clamshell receiver held up rather well. |
|
|
I have shot quite a bit of the blazer brass stuff. Never the aluminum though.
|
|
You know, I was initially slightly concerned about the design of the receiver and discussed it here in the release thread, but I have to admit it looks like it held up pretty well. Concerns allayed.

And an interesting point at that. I'm not sure. It did take quite a bit of force to get the bullet and casing out. View Quote View All Quotes View All Quotes Quoted:

I have shot thousands of rounds of that 9mm Blazer without a single issue ever. It's not shit ammo that I can tell, but it's cute how everyone jumps to conclusions. |

You have no idea if this is a gun or ammo problem. The MPX was literally just released. There are WAY more Evos in the wild than MPXs. View Quote View All Quotes View All Quotes Quoted:

Make mine an MPX, thanks. You get what you pay for. You have no idea if this is a gun or ammo problem. The MPX was literally just released. There are WAY more Evos in the wild than MPXs. I don't need to know if it's a gun or ammo problem to know that a KB in a metal-framed gun is going to just torch the mag and not the receiver. |

I'll tell you what happened. That's the worst fucking ammo out there. Years ago, my brother was shooting my uncle's M1 Thompson (full auto, WWII Savage) with that ammo. Fired a burst, then started another one and got a huge blowback of gas in his face. Stopped firing immediately and they found I believe 10-12 bullets stuck in the barrel. Luckily, the Thompson is a man gun and wasn't damaged. None of us have used that ammo since.

I wont touch that aluminum shit. had cases blow out in first box I tried, and one round was dented real good. just seems to fragile, Though I know it happens with other cases types sometimes.

That sucks. Where I work, we've used Blazer aluminum for handgun practice ammo for years. I personally have never had a problem with it. The range had about half dozen squibs in the last few months and now we're switching to Federal practice ammo. Nothing like a grenade above, but a couple of bulged barrels from sending a another round after it. I don't know what happened with Blazer QC, but it's nit very confidence inspiring.

Quoted: that's what i thought. I thought a squib actually made it to the barrel but was stuck in it. that looks like a case failure to me. But then again i am just a printer repairman.
