If Glock made 1911s

[churchmouse]

TO be fair, SS 1911's are more prone to craking due to metallurgical makeup. Stainless on Stainless has a tendency to "gall" this galling can be avoiding by ramping up the carbon content of the stainless and often that leads to fairly brittle parts. http://t0.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcTIc74Zq9xoUuJszRTEm_IJeEKV6S8i17tFyyulmvL1vC-fg_LopoOc4PI1 It happens.

That sucks. Many of my baby's are stainless. Stainless rocks.

Haters gonna hate.

Even in the wrong forum.

Yet another reason for newbie reloaders NOT to load on a progressive.

We may never know how that happened, but I would tend to blame the reloader IMHo.

Double, triple check everything. Being complacent could be fatal.

But to be fair he left it outside overnight then went shooting and did a lot of rapid fire. Colorado winter plus rapid heat swing can be hell on a sharp corner that should have been radiused.

This is exactly why I don't reload... I like my hands a lot! Especially the right one....

"Did he just make a naughty joke?! "

BOOYA!

Did it fire out of battery?

The slide isnt forward, the shell casing is blown out at the rear....?

MIght have been less damage if it was in full battery?

God bless

My best bet is on a double charge.

If it fired oob I would think that it would be bulged or blown. This thing fired with enough force to cause the ejector to crack the slide.

 

[churchmouse]

The forces involved are apparent. Could the slide have been flawed. Possibly a crack or some issue from casting.

That's it...

I'm putting an end to this ONCE AND FOR ALL.

If Glock made a 1911 then it would be the best 1911 on the market!

That is my only real issue with a Glock of any kind. Works as supposed to but man they are just Homely. Like that girl you knew. She was nice, worked as she was supposed to but you did not want your friends to see you with her.

Ladies, this works both ways so no flame jobs please.......

 

[JetGirl]

If I have proper placement of a Glock in hand, I can only graze the side of the trigger. In order to fully engage the trigger safety, I have to scootch my whole hand around to reach it.
That's the reason I don't care for them. Even so...with a funky grip, I can shoot them fair to middling... but I don't like it.
