Small Pistol Primers?

[johnny1290]

I wasn't even bagging on you, but if you want to out yourself as a crybaby then so be it.

Yes, I know, glocks are just getting broken in after 20 or 30 thousand rounds of hand loaded high performance ammo which violated the warranty from day 1.

Its those darn primers!

The gun still works, its a total non issue by the usual whiners.

You guys are the people that use stuff then return it to Costco. Please.

A $500 gun wearing out a part after 20-30k rounds of competitive shooting with rifle magnum printers. Stop the presses! Glocks are defective! LOL.

So typical.

DAG Ammo also has 'em in stock. http://www.dagammo.com

Used a few thousand so far in .38/357, and all went bang.

I don't know who pi$$ed in your fruit loops, but all I'm saying is using SRP is a known risk. The guys posting in that thread, with similar or the same experiences, we're not using "high performance" ammo. They were mostly minor PF ammo, which is anything BUT "high performance" ammo. With the exception of (1) pistol, all I own are Glocks (including 3 GEN 4 9mm's), and I put atleast 5k rounds through each of them every year. I'm not the guy you want to think I am. Do whatever you want, I'll keep running standard SPP's & not think twice about it. If you were that smart, you wouldn't have to use SRP "in a pinch" anyway.

Never tried using small rifle primers, but I have run about 35,000 of small pistol magnum primers (CCI) thru this G17 (about 80,000 rounds total). And the G34 LoneWolf SS upper has about 17,000 of small magnum CCI's also. Looks normal to me. 125 TC Bear Creek on top of 4 grs TiteGroup at 1.155 overall length. Goes about 1,180 fps out of the G17.

So the rifle primers have harder cups that caused the problem. Do magnum pistol primers use a harder cup than standard primers or are they harder like the rifle primers?

Don't worry about it, most of us have been there once or twice before. I also want to apologize for responding the way I did.

Well if you're in SoCal, Phillips Wholesale in Covina/Glendora. 626-331-3022 open only thurs-sun. Great prices. I go there for powder, primer & bullets.

The only way gas can blow back is if the primer doesn't seat tight, magnum or not. I suspect the guy who posted erosion was using the cases over and over. I only run once fired, and fire them once.
