A Reminder On Unknown Reloads

And this is why you don't shoot reloads, especially reloads someone else gives you. Someone gave my dad some ammo for his M1 carbine – in a factory box (some not). I didn't know this at the time, but quickly figured it out. It was in a factory box and he got the ammo third or fourth hand. All the head stamps were different. He also had some soft point ammo that wouldn't chamber. Buy factory ammo from a reputable company. If someone wants to give you ammo – ask where they got it from and if it's reloads or not. This is a great reason to wear eye pro. I have seen factory ammo blow up guns on multiple occasions. Reloads or "unknown" origins of ammo someone wants to give you – probably is not the smartest. It will probably void your warranty as well. Fortunately there wasn't any damage – well just to my underwear 💩🔫😮 #nokaboomtoday #kaboom #eyepro #m1carbine #30carbine
