OK well 1st time in 35 years on the range. Exploding gun ,feel dumb about it but this is what happened . Gun RIA .38 super put new trigger job in (good brand ) but will not mention name. Sixth round BANG. Magazine pushed down and out , slide jammed shut. Hit in face with minor brass. Have pulled apart no damage that I can see. (see photos) . Have checked all other loads and 4.2 bullseye with 135gr LRN? starting load? Appears to have fired when not in battery (locked up)? Weak spring?? Do not really know . Can anyone put some light on what has happened. HELP!! warren
