Re: Bullet setback

Motor oil is not 100% reliable in killing primers, especially if only left in for a short time. Extended immersion will eventually get it, but the best way is to chamber the empty case in your firearm and pop the primer.

Is really isn't necessary, though. A primed case is a good noisemaker, but don't set it off touching your head and you won't get hurt...it is about like a blank round...all noise.

Re: Bullet setback

I replaced 2 extractors in my Glock 22 until I learned this piece of wisdom...it breaks a chip off the tip of the extractor eventually. That lead to the only malfunctions I have ever had with my Glocks...failures to extract because 1/4 of the business part of the extractor was gone, and it was totally my fault. :oops:

My Kahr manual also specifically recommends AGAINST dropping the slide on a round in the chamber.
