I am very curious as to what jams in your guns?
We all know these rounds and we have all made a list be it written or mental of what will not function in our "favorite" gun/ammo combos.
I will agree that is far more satisfying to post on what works and how "my guns run 100%" but we all know better.
Pistolsmith.com is a reality based program and I am quite sure that we all have known gun/ammo combos that will not function.
My most recent list member has been with Wolf 230gr FMJ steel cased ammo in my two Springfield TRP models, the SS and the PRO.
It will not extract in either gun, they run 100% otherwise with PMC, Speer, Federal and Winchester FMJ.
One other example has been with Magsafe defender and Mini-Glock 9mm rounds in my P7, they will not function reliably.
Using them cause’s double feeds and stove pipes.
I was "told" years ago not to use Glaser’s in the P7 and was curious with the magsafe's.
Neither of these guns is "defective" and short of replacing the extractor on an otherwise 100% gun (which I will not do) I avoid using Wolf ammo in my TRPS.
The P7 will never function reliably with the frangible due to the gas port design.
Please understand that I do not want to flame any manufacturer and I do not want single them out, I am looking for the combinations that will not work together.
