Hey there
I purchased a 6 inch GP100 this year. It was a new gun produced in 2005. Ive got the wolf spring kit and it is shooting very nicely.
Only problem is so far since ive owned it ive had two burst cartridges.
For sure one was very old brass but the other one that burst came from new
factory loaded american eagle .38 spcl rounds. When the bursts occur
it happens in the middle of the cartridge versus at the end/opening like what has happened to a friend of mine. Inspecting the cylinder there is no dammage and everything seems fine.
Im new to revolvers and just want to know if this does happen fairly often and if it doesnt would it be fair to say it has to happen to one guy a couple of times ?
I dunno
I sent federal an email and they sent me a cheque for the boxes i paid for.
Just wondering if this happens much to you folks.
