If anyone has a FB account & knows what happened to the Revolver pictured on SJSC page, please tell us what foreign manufacturer was used to cause such a epic failure of the frame & cylinder. Usually I see a single shell detonate,but the photo  shows both shells have detonated at the same time.

Aint seen the pic. I know for a fact the hungarian MFS stuff is trash. It takes talent to screw up a .38 Special round... And they do it with style. Brass quality is trash, loads are inconsistent at best.



Also, I want PK90 unbanned.

That's a S&W Model 629. .44 Magnum, not a .38 special.

This picture has been floating around the net for the last 6-8 months. Not sure where it happened.

Why would you assume it is foreign ammunition? My first guess would be reloads, since that is what causes such catastrophic failures most of the time.

Correct -from the link posted in an earlier post:
"He said there was a loud bang when he tested his new hot load and the gun smacked him in the forehead, leaving a nice gash"

Wonder why they would post this to there page?
I was under the impression it was a recent event at the Club, these posts tell a different story.
