Hey all. Been shooting and reloading for over 25 years now and experienced my first squib tonight. Shooting my LCP with my own reloads tonight and couldn't get the next round to load. Looked in the chamber and found the casing still there. Not sure what I was thinking, but...
Pulled out the casing and racked the slide, same thing, didn't fully seat in the chamber.
Finally took the gun apart and holy sheepdip, there was the bullet just barely out of the case mouth (I'd guess). :banghead:
Not sure why I didn't suspect the squib as I didn't really notice much different with the recoil. Scary.
Lucky night I guess.
