Re: Bullet stuck in barrel.
Squibs can happen with ANY ammo. Very rare in factory ammo, but can happen.

Re: Bullet stuck in barrel.
I've been thinking about this topic since I first saw it posted. Couldn't you McGuyver it and put Chewing gum or a pre-setup pencil eraser or some padding stuff of the firing pin to prevent the dislodged round from discharging? Just a thought, stop hitting me.

Re: Bullet stuck in barrel.
Just to make sure we are on the same page...
the round DID fire, sort of. Enough so that the bullet left the cartridge, and entered the barrel. The cartridge case may or may not (usually not) eject.
So now you have a bullet lodged in the barrel.
The operator then says, hmm, nothing happened, and racks the slide as he's been taught to do, chambering another round, and if the bullet is far enough into the barrel, the next cartridge will chamber just fine...so when you pull the trigger on the NEXT bullet, the gun has serious issues, and the operator may as well...
But if you know about squibs, also called "pop, no BANG", then you say...hmm, something happened, but that wasn't right...so you clear the weapon by dropping the mag and racking the slide, lock the slide back, and visually check the chamber, and then the barrel, for obstructions.

Re: Bullet stuck in barrel.
Awesome that you caught that in time. Glad no one was hurt.

Re: Bullet stuck in barrel.

Re: Bullet stuck in barrel.
That would be funny....but not really fair to make fun of the poor guy, as it was the ammo that caused it, and in a rapid fire mode, most wouldn't catch it... :blink:
well...not really fair unless he was reloading his own squibs... :devilsidesmile:

Re: Bullet stuck in barrel.
Ajole you hit it right on the head. I did hear a pop, not a bang and knew something was wrong. Casing did eject fine. Yep, glad I was close and heard it for I think it might have gotten past my brother-in-law that was shooting the gun.
Have not tried to remove it yet. Too many thing moving into a new house and with a load of company the past 2 week-end . Will post on the removal process in a couple of days, as soon as I find my punches to remove the slide.
