There was a SIG that had one as well. Compounded by no response from Zincpoint nor any offer to replace or pay for the ammo he sent back to them to examine. Of course I doubt he'd want the ammo replaced. I think there were other similar complaints in some reviews of ZincPoint ammo as well.eyedoc wrote: ↑Fri Feb 10, 2023 8:55 pm I have seen that before from the unsupported chamber on the Glock barrel. The pistol wears and gets a little more headspace that cause the case to blow.

One of our local shooting ranges banned Blazer ammo years ago. They had a destroyed S&W revolver on display. I have used Blazer a time or two when the ammo shortage was severe with no issues, only their brass cased ammo.Paladin wrote: ↑Sun Feb 12, 2023 4:29 pm Over the weekend a student brought Blazer Brass ammo to class. The first squib we cleared with a wooden dowel. The second put the bullet much deeper in the barrel and took a steel rod and a hammer to pound out. Fortunately he stopped shooting at the appropriate times. His Glock survived.
Anybody want some free ammo?
Both Marksman and Pasadena Gun Center have banned it for many years. The display at Pasadena is eye opening.puma guy wrote: ↑Mon Feb 13, 2023 1:00 pmOne of our local shooting ranges banned Blazer ammo years ago. They had a destroyed S&W revolver on display.

Pasadena Gun Center is the one I was talking about. I didn't know Marksman banned it. I shoot there a lot - been going there since the early 60's.Paladin wrote: ↑Mon Feb 13, 2023 4:13 pmBoth Marksman and Pasadena Gun Center have banned it for many years.

I asked the folks at Pasadena Gun Center about it one time and they were surprised and appalled Blazer stayed in business.puma guy wrote: ↑Mon Feb 13, 2023 5:46 pmPasadena Gun Center is the one I was talking about.

No, but I used to spend a lot of time on the range there.puma guy wrote: ↑Mon Feb 13, 2023 10:35 pmPaladin, Are you from Pasadena?Paladin wrote: ↑Mon Feb 13, 2023 6:38 pmI asked the folks at Pasadena Gun Center about it one time and they were surprised and appalled Blazer stayed in business.puma guy wrote: ↑Mon Feb 13, 2023 5:46 pmPasadena Gun Center is the one I was talking about.

I shot there from 2002-2011... Not certain if he was still running it at that time. Great place!puma guy wrote: ↑Tue Feb 14, 2023 10:10 amDid you shoot at Marksman when Tom Mixon owned and ran it?Paladin wrote: ↑Tue Feb 14, 2023 9:52 am
