AR kaboom
I've seen it before, but never thought it would happen to me. Yes, I know...
So there I was using some reload/remanufactured ammo to "warm up" before working on precision drills with match ammo when suddenly kaboom and dark smoke all over.
I then observed:
- The mag was blasted down and chipped in two parts
- The broken casing was stuck in chamber.
- Ejector and ejector spring under the rifle
- The round that was still in the magazine got bent and dented. I found it 3 ft away
- My ear plugs case near the mag well was smashed
- My car key near the mag well was bent!
Thank God all fingers, face, arms, etc. are still intact.
Was that the result of overloading/overpressure? Case that's been reused and resized too much (too thin to handle pressure)?
Have any one of you experienced this? Would the ammo manufacturer give you refund, replace the ammo, or cover damages?
I'm withholding the name of the manufacturer while I'm trying to see how they answer for their (faulty) products.
