[QUOTE="Roeder, post: 1366814, member: 87340"] For your girlfriend's safety and your peace of mind, have a reputable gunsmith look at it and check the headspace. Usually there would be fairly obvious damage to the bolt from a severe overpressure event, but not always. Increased headspace may not be noticeable but could be dangerous. The peace of mind will be worth the trouble. Even if it does have excess headspace it can probably be restored. [/QUOTE]
