Yeah, so I bought a batch of 100 9mm reloads from a local
gun show for $20. Now I see why they were so cheap.
I was taking my CCW class and when they covered the different
kinds of ammo the instructor advised against buying reloads unless
you made them yourself. Boy was he right, I had at least one double
feed in every magazine that I loaded.
Basically, it looked like some of the rounds did not fit properly into the barrel
due to their improper shape.
This did, however, give me a good opportunity to practice clearing double
feeds. I couldn't disconnect the mag or cycle the action. I had to hold in
the mag release button, manually yank the mag out, and then cycle. Fun.
Anyway, I'm not the type to slander a business' name but even at the
class, other people knew exactly which company sold them before I told
them who it was. Looks like this company is selling crappy ammo to everyone.
Let me know if you guys would like to know who it is so you don't get burned
unless you already know who it is.
