Glock 26 squib!

[spencerk]

So I was doing some training today when I heard the dreaded hiss. No boom. Squib.

So I proceeded to drop the mag and clear the chamber. I then disassembled my glock and checked the barrel. Just as I thought, a squib.

Reloaded?

Reload or factory ammo?

That sucks, but at least you caught it!

Reloads I bought less than a week ago. Note to self, NO MORE RELOADS

At least you noticed it before something bad happened. Imagine how bad your day would have been if you were doing a rapid fire string and didn't realize the issue before you pulled the trigger again.

Yeah I was told to rechamber and fire, but I watched my buddy loose two fingers to not recognizing a squib before he attempted to fire again... So needless to say, I'm very paranoid about misfires/light primer strikes. I'm just thankful To have all 10 digits.

wow, thats scary. i'm thinking that it doesn't eject the casing so even if you did pull the trigger again, its not like a new round is loaded, right?

It didn't eject but I heard a hissing noise so I didn't even risk touching the trigger again. Don't want my nickname to be stumpy...

Glad you are okay/safe! Seriously . . . Could have been a Very Different Post

fwiw:
- Only reloads I will shoot: MINE

Why?: I am Very Cautious/Safe with my Loading Process & RATE of reloading. Not worth saving a few to those a few.

Friendly Advice to Anyone New to Releading: Take your Time, Stay Focused
Just A Friendly reminder to the Seasoned: Don't get complacent, Stay Focused.

* I know some have had this /that experience with _x_ brand, that is all great & glad its working out for them. BUT !!! - But !!! It's a risk "I" am not willing to take.

If "I" didn't roll it, I'm not loading it, Period.

Stay safe

Good restraint and great catch OP. That damage pic is pretty scary, scary stippling job too.

Seeing horrible images like this makes me think twice about reloads and feel alot better when I pay retail for factory ammo when available.

Reloads from the wrong source can be disastrous. Glad you were able to notice the danger before you popped off another round. Surprisingly my only squib round ever was from a .45acp Remington UMC mega 250 pack.

The reloads were from lax firing range. They have their own ammo brand.
