    Hi guys yes their is a problem with misfiring ammo and the projectiles getting suck in front of chamber and yes you can get another round in a rush and man dose it go bang and the extra came out of bolt and blow the mag out and into lots of paces all over the bike . I have a box of misfire in the gunroom, pull a projectile out and look at the powder ,it will be one big lump it is very dangers for some reason!i have fired about 15000 though my ruger Ruger.
