Last month I won a radio call in contest and won an hour long full body massage. Today is the day I collect my winnings. Gun shows Sat and Sun.



I did not know BassAddict gave massages?

:shock: I'm hoping he doesn't... At least not here in Illinois.

Need a massage will travel :-D!

Ahab....BassAddict.....??????

Have you ever had a day where something went so dangerously wrong and you managed to come out unscathed?

Went shooting my Kel-Tec Sub 2000 at the range today. Had a round case explode in the gun. It blew the magazine out of the mag well and blew the safety out the side of the receiver. I felt the hand grip expand and the impact numbed my hand for a good 10-15 minutes, but other than that I'm fine.

Factory or reloads?
 
I bought it from a guy that said it was new from Load-X. I have no idea if it was new or Load-X reloads or this guy reloaded it himself and said it was from Load-X.
 
1) Glad your okay.
2) That's a typical unsupported chamber blow out (40SW I'm guessing?)
3) For a Keltec, if that's all that went wrong, you did awesome. Seriously. You did awesome.

If it was a reload, it blew out right where the traditional "Glock Smile" would be, so you could have had crap brass or too much powder. If it was a true double load, you'd have blown out more than the mag/safety. You have the lot number on the ammo manufacturer's box? Give 'em a call.

Keltec will likely fix the gun, FWIW.

1. Thanks
2. Figured it blew out unsupported over the feed ramp (9mm)
3. First issue with the Kel-Tec, they get a bad rap but more for fit/finish than crappy design. Once you"fluff and buff" most of them run great. Load-X is sold bulk at gun shows and I'm pretty sure the guy I bought from, bought a large amount at a reduced price and broke it up into 50 round bags, ergo, no lot number. I did email Load-X and enclosed the photo of the casing telling them what happened. Confident Kel-Tec will make it right. I'm not the original owner so the warranty doesn't apply to me and I may have to make some sort of payment for the repairs.
