[QUOTE="Hugnot, post: 2767083, member: 115658"] That long pointy thing looks like a swaged down 5.6 round, bullet included, that failed to fire & got pushed into barrel as shown by rifling, when blasted by the shorter big fat black out round that followed. All sorts of havoc including detonation of both primers & powder gas expansion. Sort of like a slam fire with a chambered round. Bolt lugs look intact and chamber end of barrel not damaged - lugs not fully engaged upon KABOOM. Barrel not blown away from receiver. Did I miss seeing an explanation of how, what appears to be, a swaged down 5.56 round was jammed into the barrel? Should an event like this go to litigation cause presentation would be huge to match award. A tribute to hi-strength aluminum alloy upper to contain the explosion as well as shown. Great photo's for hopefully a long run thread to view an unusual bad event. Yes, post 36 looks like a good start. [/QUOTE]
