I have seen some pistols advertised as having the ability to strike a round again without a manual re-cock in the event of a primer not igniting the first time.
I use an M&P40c for my EDC which does not have this capability.
The question: has anyone here ever had a misfire of this nature and then struck the round again with any success?
My feeling is that if the round is a dud, why would I waste time striking the same dead primer twice? My inclination would be that dumping said round and trying with a fresh one would probably have the highest probability of success.
Anyone with first hand knowledge of this scenario?
Thanks.
