Either had an overpowered round prior or my PMag has an overzealous spring.
(Palmetto Upper and Lower / checked everything out and nothing appeared damaged.)

Need some German engineering in your life. That said, the brass is softer than the metals used in the guns, so it shouldn’t damage anything.

That’s just life sometimes with an AR15.

I would for sure check you mag’s follower for spring tension. Granted you have PMAGs and not STANAGs.
In basic training my M16 ended up with a triple feed because of a messed up follower. That was a fun thing to fix.

Triple feed just sounds like everyone wanted to rush to the party all at once.

Oh yeah was great. Even had a magazine spring lose all tension once during qualifying. Dropped the mag and all the rounds just popped out.

Sounds like you had a full on pez dispensor happen.

Oh yeah. I hate STANAGs. Granted I’m sure the TAPCO mags my AK has aren’t much better.

That depends. (I’m in ballistics and explosives engineering. We’ve done some dumb shit over the years.)

I mean, if you put a shit ton of powder in it, it doesn’t really matter what material the casings is made of.

I don’t have much experience with PMAGs but I know different generations have different issues in some guns.

Yeah... we’ve done dumber shit than that even though.

Mmmmm... roller locked perfection. I have what some might call “too many” roller locked firearms. Not a one of them is genuine HK but they’re all pretty nice. I used to have a real HK53 (cut down from a 93 and had a registered Fleming sear) but I sold it. That was dumb.
Now I have a bunch of clones, but they all work fine so I’m not too busted up over it.

Well I mean you’d also have to push start busted Acuras and drive around in this shitbox:
Seriously though, there is a lot of desk work/writing but we do get to do some pretty fun things and have built up a pretty good list of epic kludge stories over the years.

My dad was talking about getting rid of his 91 and I was like if you sell it, I want it. He sold it to me for $1200, which is the inflation adjusted price he paid for it in 1985.

We were using plastics and one guy had the baseplate Crack and falloff. Everything fell out the bottom. It was funny as shit.
The worst is that no matter how many times you told someone not to use them on the C9 (M249?) They did. Only way to get them out was to kick it off and pick the pieces out of the feeder.

That’s only a little more than a not-terrible clone (thankfully, with many original HK parts) goes for.
