Amazingly, no Ka-boom

What would have happened if it wasn't a blow back?

Still amazed the back pressure didn't do any damage to the bolt, stock or receiver cover.

Unfortunately, it adds to the stereo-type that folks who buy budget price points have less than budget knowledge and skill.

Well..that's certainly require some level of Divine Intervention... 😉

Yeah, doesn't make any sense that that would happen with full power loads.

Hard to believe there's 35 bullets in the Bbl let alone any full power loads were shot.

Full power , something would have failed in a big way.

 

Again, JMHO.

Probably reloads.

Loads weren't charged with any powder, just primer.

When that happened to me, the bullet would stick really close to the chamber and the next round wouldn't feed.  But a HiPoint could have a looser tolerance.  No way those rounds had much, if any, powder.  

The customer's complaint was "accuracy issues".  He couldn't get on paper at any distance.   :D
