IAI M1 Carbine has functioned perfectly with several ammo types.
Fired PMC for the first time yesterday and two cases blew out-
First blew out the bottom of the magazine. I did not see the case so I checked the carbine over it looked fine, I put a new mag in and bam- same thing. This time I found the blown case and the first one as well.
I then field stripped the carbine- it looks fine. Put a third mag in of Remington and fired away- no other problems.
Could the PMC ammo be a bad batch? I don't plan on shooting any more of it, but what else should I check? Thanks
