Going back to my minor issue (mini-KaBOOM in my Glock)

FWIW, the case was STUCK in the chamber.

After disassembly it took a pair of needle nose pliers to yank it out, and it required a pretty stiff yank too. The bottom 1/8th inch of the case was bulged out all the way around, except for the area facing the bottom of the gun, which was blown out. I guess it was very fortunate that the magazine was empty as it allowed the gasses to expand into the magazine blowing the bottom of the magazine off rather than having the gases expand out the side causing a frame break.

There is no visible damage to any part of the gun.

Jay was standing behind me when it happened, not sure if he was actually paying attention? But as Jay is a "Glock guy" I'm curious to hear what he thinks.

While its pretty cool to see Jay actually holding a Detonics,

...and while its darn near amazing to see the case coming out of the chamber,

...its just a shame that you didn't get a photo of him fumbling around with the gun and magazine a few moments earlier;

…of course seeing an extremely rare magazine bounce off the concrete again might give me a heart attack so maybe its better that you were just a few moments too late to get that on film.

Snapdragons short list for new rifle(s)?

 

[Snapdragon]

Seriously, I'm good. I got my chief's special yesterday, so I'm happy.

 

[1775usmarine]

Any pictures of my wife doing clays?

Only five is a small number to have.

 

[Snapdragon]

Four revolvers and the shotgun. But the shotgun might be finding a new home soon. My shoulder hurt so bad last night I couldn't sleep. It's just too messed up to take the recoil, even from a 20 ga.

Don't try a Mosin.

Best part of the day was shooting the Para CARRY9 pistol.

Its been tucked away and not carrier for way to long. That is just a sweet shooting gun, light weight, 9 shots, compact size and the "LDA" trigger system is pretty darn amazing. My 'new' carry gun may end up being one of my 'old' carry guns.

Glad I pulled that out of the safe.

That trigger is hands down the nicest DA trigger I've pulled.

Great pics, Nipprdog!

Thanks.

You are going to sell it?

Don't try a Mosin.

That is why we did not give her my mosin to try out.
She did the .30carbine and even that was too much for her shoulder.
I think maybe the scar would be ok or a real heavy ar.


@Nipprdog
What about the pics of the front of the hi point?
Thanks

 

[Snapdragon]

Yeah, either sell or trade. I have to count up the ammo I have so I can throw that in the deal.

 

[KLB]

Get a 22lr rifle Snap.

Keep me posted please.

Get a 22lr rifle Snap.

Depends on what she wanted the long gun for.
Home defense?

 

[1775usmarine]

What kind of shotgun?

 

[Snapdragon]

I really don't have a use for a rifle at this point. I have my 686 for home defense. If I want something more powerful, I can get a .44.

Ok, will let you know Jedi.

 

[Snapdragon]

Let's not clog up this thread with it. We can take it to the NW thread.

Snapdragon needs to get her first Ruger 10/22.

I still don't have one of those. Don't see myself getting one any time soon either.
