Let this be a lesson to remove your laser bore sighter before you fire your rifle.  I've got some more pictures, but I'm having trouble getting them to open. My friend sent them to me, and I don't know if they've been posted before or what the whole story is. Apparently somebody had a Site Lite bore sighter still in the barrel when they set off a round.

OOOUUUUUCCCCCHHHHH!!!!!!   Was that your Sig? |
Wow! Hopefully the mark was just a mark! I know anything can KB given the right circumstances, but Sigs are so buff that you just don't think about them KB'ing too much. Did that ever get resolved for the customer by Norinco or Sig? |
That's poopy! Is the rifle feeling better yet? |
Yeah, that was over a year ago. Sent it in to Bushmaster. Everyone from armorers to engineers looked at it and said everything was in spec. They couldn't figure out what happened so they sent me a whole new upper. |
Good on Bushmaster! I hope that never happens with my Colt, not so sure I'd have the same fortune. So, it wasn't necessarily ammo related? |
It's more than likely ammo-related. (case head separation, or something along those lines) But since it only cost me shipping to get the upper to Bushmaster, I decided to not go after the ammo company. It was Remington UMC, for future reference. |
Again, I'm impressed with Bushmaster from the stories I hear - and good call on your part.
I wonder if california would consider that an illegal flash hider LOL
