hey /k/, I put a mag in my hi power, racked a round in, ejected it, and took a look at the round. it looks like the bullet was pushed further into the casing. is it safe to shoot?
congrats op. you did this.
Would i shout it?? yeah
Yes, it's 100% safe to shoot.
Yes, it just looks cuter is all.
lol you turned it from a 9x19 into a 9x18 makarov, id still shoot it.
>>29983048
kawaii desu
>>29983048
Probably. Here's a hint when it comes to 9mm FMJ, don't load it until you're ready to shoot it at the range. I used crimped 9mm JHP that prevents bullet set back. If you're really concerned you could not shoot it. It's one round. I also have S&B FMJ but for target practice.
>>29983048
I vote no because I handload and am therefore anal about things like that. Toss it. Compressed loads are as dangerous as light loads.
I cleared the whole mag, looks liks two other rounds were fucked up. what the hell
>>29983048
>>29983111
Its called setback. Is this a new pistol? Does it do this to other ammo?
>>29983111
They are probably getting snagged somewhere during feeding and pushed in by the slide.
>>29983150
surplus pistol. ammo is new though, just got it today. I have no other brand.
should I do as >>29983087 says and only load it at the range?
9x18 for comparison lol
>>29983152
makes sense, I looked at the rest in the box but none were similar.
>>29983177
That only makes sense is if what you're doing is repeatedly chambering the rounds. If that's what's cause the issue then it's not much of a problem.
If it's doing this to every other round then it's an issue. Ill assume you're chambering by hand, in which case are you riding the slide forward AT ALL? And for fucks sake don't fire the affected rounds unless your find of pressure spikes and potential shrapnel
on a slightly related not S&Bs 10mm is less than 35cpr right now, which is as cheap as it gets
>>29983379
thanks for the input, like you and other anons said, I'll just load at the range, or just load once and never reload the same rounds more than once. I'm glad I noticed before I fired them.
>>29983048
Thats probably your shitty meme-guns feed ramps issue, not the bullet's.
>>29983623
>hi power
>browning hi power

>>29983647
Hi powers are the meme-ist of handguns.
>>29983657
that's not a Five-seveN.
>>29983657
This, along with FALs, ARs, AKs and any other gun that has been in service for a long period of time all over the world.
Fucking memers.
>>29983657
I'm taking the bate
how is it meme-y?
Best case scenario, you save like a dollar and get to fire a kinda fucked up round.
Worst case scenario, you fuck all of your shit up.
I'd say the reward outweighs the risk for sure.
>>29983703
Everything on /k/ is a fucking meme now. just like the fact that people here claim to own guns.
>>29983731
>on /k/
I was on /fa/ the other day and was told that plain white t-shirts are a meme
I have a box where I keep all my malformed rounds, light primer strikes, dented brass, and steel case ammo that got rained on and rusted. none of which I'll ever fire ever
sounds like you need a box OP
>>29983750
sounds like a safety hazard, anon
>>29983748
The fucks meme about a white t shirt? Its just like how "trolling" devolved into acting like a retard....
>>29983379
>S&Bs 10mm is less than 35cpr right now
Where?
>>29983770
That's all on /b/
which is a wasteland hardly even suitable for porn at this point
>>29983703
haven't you heard ? breathing is a meme now
>>29983048
best case, you shoot it and nothing abnormal happens.
Worst case, you shoot, and since it's a higher pressure round, it fucks your shit up.
is saving 20 cents worth possibly grenading your gun?
>>29983379
>>29983797
Nevermind, I found it.
>Fuck giving Cheaper Than Dirt any of my money though.
>>29983887
Care to explain why so future anons (me) won't buy from there either?
>>29983837
according to this guy >>29983730 it is
>>29983898
after sandy vagina, they inflated the shit out of their prices, I think, I wasn't around for it, but that's what I've heard
>>29983898
They fucked us all and are fucking assholes. I will never give them money and I am glad the store in North Austin closed down.
Fuck CTD. They used to be an okay place to go, but after Sandy Vagina gouging, fuck them royally. I wish for the day they close their site forever and a sign to other companies to not fuck up and gouge us.
>>29983898
this
>>29983898
They won't sell to Californians for one thing.
>>29983084
Actually, my friend had to learn the hard way that a mak round is slightly thicker than a Luger or a Kurtz 9mm
>>29983048
Welcome to S&B, out of a 500 rd lot of 45 acp, 48 were setback
>>29984212
I have over a thousand rounds from them, not a single setback. I think you guys either have shitty luck or are chambering rounds over and over and shocked that an uncrimped round will have setback.
FMJ is for target practice. Not cycling a shit ton of times.
>>29984347
This. The last 4k 9mm rounds I've been through have been S&B with zero issues. They are a reliable manufacturer. The fact that OP even made a thread about setback is proof he's a newguns faggot who is playing with loaded guns and racking rounds all the time like a dumb child.
>>29983898
>>29984125
Also pic related. They only suspended sales to ensure future gouging at panic level prices.
